[BRLTTY] brltty looping in sonar gnu linux

2016-06-09 Thread kendell clark
hi all I reported a couple of weeks ago that I'm trying to configure brltty as a console screen reader. It does start and speak now. But it restarts itself after it speaks it's name and version, and it won't speak on command. After every five or ten seconds, it will restart, and repeat it's name an

hi Got it. I'll set up a log-file setting in our brltty config before rebuilding another image. I'll attach the log to another message. Thanks Kendell Clark Dave Mielke wrote: > [quoted lines by kendell clark on 2016/06/09 at 08:56 -0500] > >> I reported a couple of weeks ago that I'm trying to c

hi This happens on my system as well. It happens most on the live images I build of sonar and then boot to make sure everything works like it should. I'm burning the image to a flash drive and I'm also generating that log you need. I'll attach it to another message to this list. Thanks Kendell Clar

In the log you posted, brltty looks like it's crashing just after the eSpeak speech driver started. Since you're saying that you're hearing it speak one thing, I'm guessing that that's where the crash is. I wonder why I'm suspecting a Pulse Audio crash. :-( What happens if you specify the "no"

hi Oops, sorry about that. It is fairly late so I'll blame it on the hour. Still, I should've read the entire line before saving and closing. I'll generate another log file. I'll also use ulimit -c unlimited to see if I'm getting a core file, and if I am, I'll attach that as well. Thanks Kendell Cl

hi Got another log file. The log level this time was set to: debug,speech,brldrv,inpkts,outpkts. Resulting file is attached. I checked for a core file, but didn't see one. I ran ulimit -c unlimited before killing brltty with systemd after several restarts. Thanks Kendell Clark Dave Mielke wrote:

hi Would you mind looking up the ulimit info? I'm afraid that systemd is quite complex, and I don't really understand much about it except how to start, stop and inspect services. What would you like me to do next so I can help you guys track down what's going on? I think I'll go get some more coff
