Weird. I have one machine saying one thing (the machine which
was upgraded from Lenny), and the new machine. Oh, and speakup doesn't
work in debian if

Hello all,
Just installed the amd64 squeeze build, entered:
apt-cache search speakup
...and got squat. No speakup-modules to install. Think this happened
once before back in my Shane's netinst days, where things didn't show up
until I upgraded a kernel. Performed an
Hello all,
There any chance a "speakup" virtual package can be made, so you
can just type "apt-get install speakup" once Debian is installed? As it
stands now, sighted assistance is required to get speakup installed,
once the installation has completed, the way the speakup-modu

If I wanna go that route, why not just tell Debian to shove off
and just install GRML. No, I have an ltlk synthesizer. It should work

Which official Debian image contains speakup support at all?
I've tried the Official 640M image, and the Official netinst image in
lenny and the Official Squeeze Off

Lenny doesn't use the soft synth, I don't think. It doesn't
have the espeakup package for it, anyway. espeakup didn't come out
until squeeze.

Hello,
Looking for which lenny image to download so I can install
Debian with speakup. This is, like, the 4th CD image I've burned after
finding out Squeeze was a waste of time. Thought I'd try Lenny then and
it's still wasting time and blank CDs. Any pointers? I thought Len

Hello all,
Trying to fire up last week's Squeeze snapshot CD with the

either. What do I do? TIA, -- Linux User: 177869 Powered by Intel

Are you trying to login as "root", because that doesn't work in
