Re: [orca-list] Even after a system reinstalation, Orca does not speak

[luciano de souza <luchyanus gmail com>]

Oh! These messages were very important for me. It's nice to know how
to test the system.
I did: espeak hello. Orca does not say anything. I did: spd-say hello.
Nothing is spoken again.
The conclusion is that the system does not have sound. I confess it's
a surprising conclusion. When the system is turned off, the sound of
good bye is listened.
I can't use ctrl+alt+right and left to change the volume. Here, it is
used to change among desktops.
Before this situation, I ask:
1. Does someone have any additional tip?
2. Is there a way to change the volume or turn on and off the sound by terminal?
3. Is there terminal commands to create a brand new user, allowing
that a new Home folder is created?
