Re: [orca-list] espeak weirdness with new intrepid alpha

[Guy Schlosser <guyster bex net>]

OK, here's to add to the weirdness.  I found out from a sighted 
person that when I turn on my computer, a message about low graphics 
mode was coming up.  I then installed the latest nvidia drivers 
(nvidia-glx-177), and although the number problem is solved, espeak 
(as long as I'm using gnome-speech) is the only application giving 
any audio.  If I type pavucontrol to get into the pulseaudio volume 
control, I get a connection refused message.  To sum it up, the 
numeric problem with espeak seemed to be caused by the low video, but 
installing the nvidia-glx driver broke something with 
pulseaudio.  Any suggestions?  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,


Guy
