At least there is a good chance that it will solve the problem. There was a suggestion of passing the kernel option 'floppy=thinkpad' at the boot prompt, but no answer as to whether that made a difference or not. > I Am using Gnome live project because in Debian Squeeze, ALSA sound > server is being used without Pulseaudio sound server and because i > AM blind at all, i Am using Orca screen reader with Espeak speech > synthesizer. > When Pulse audio is being used, there are issues with speech responsiveness. > So thank You for finding The reasons. Pulseaudio is often a major annoyance. Yet other times it seems to solve problems.

Well the installer wouldn't know which device you wanted to use.

Some people want to install by wireless for some reason, and quite a bit of work appears to have gone into supporting that in wheezy. > So thank You again for Yours help. No problem. I hope you get the BIOS setting changed and that it fixes the problem. Or maybe that kernel option would fix it. The description of that option is: floppy=thinkpad Tells the floppy driver that you have a Thinkpad. Thinkpads use an inverted convention for the disk change line. -- Len Sorensen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
