Re: [orca-list] removing pulse audio. will this work?

Yes, see my message mention of dmix.
You must have alsa with pulse anyway.
It is only a matter of running a few commands, i.e. installing and removing packages, and then changing your 
speech dispatcher configuratiopn to use 
alsa instead of pulse/did this on debian once just to see if it'd work.
I am not sure what you mean by installing file systems. 
There is nothing to do with your file system, that needs to be changed whether you use pulse or alsa.
I meant you could install a distro like Arch or yes, Debian that have minimalist instllation options where 
you pick your packages and or package groups 
to install during the initial installation process. 
This would be the debian net install or the normal arch or talking-arch images. Gentoo also has such a thing. 
Debian and Arch are the two distros that make it easy to do this kind of thing with speech with out having to 
work silently for a bit, and gentoo 
should, but not worked for me the time I tried.
Back to dmix, there is an entry on this on the arch wiki. Basically it defaults to using alsa dn lets you use 
pulse. 
The package storm mentions may well be an excellent alternative, andone of these days I'll certainly try it, 
but unlike him, I and many other people hve 
no history of trouble with pulse. In my case there was one exception when I was working on setting up an 
accessible linux on a sony highend netbook. 
Pulse crashed often enough that I scripted the replace ment of the corrupted pulse configuration 
directory...lol
Without any speical programs I find recording on Linux indeed easier and more reliable than it was the few 
times I tried on Windows.
Get sox for sure if you are going to do anything in the way of recording or manipulation of sound files.
