You shouldn't have to do this, but what happens when you type:
systemctl enable espeak
You could try rebooting after that.

Ah, that would only work, if it works at all, on a reboot.

What you want to do is:

sudo systemctl start espeakup

Assuming that you're up as an ordinary user able to sudo. Else, you need
to become root first. Then, if the start command works, you want the
enable command to make things permanent.

Basically, though, we need lots more info to debug this one.

That's why yours truly is suspicious of automated installs. Sounds
thrilling, I know, but the reality is usually underwhelming.

One thing I did notice was
AutoTalkingArch needed the disk with the iso on it in the dvd drive to
come up talking on a boot.  I don't know why this is, but the disk isn't
read/write so it's secure enough.

Subject: [orca-list] Auto Install did not complete successfully. RE:
    AutoTalkingArch

Hello List,

After going through the install process, I now have a hard drive that gives me
a command prompt. There is no speech.

From the first install screen, I chose the

Automatically install Arch Linux

I answered the prompts without incident and there was an Inter net connection.

There was about 30 minutes of downloading and then prompts for name, login
name and password.


The last line indicated that the install was successful and to press ENTER to
boot into the newly installed system.

I now boot to a series of tones with no speech. sighted assistance indicates
that I have the command prompt.

The commands: ?clear? works but ?ping?, date, and ?poweroff? are not
recognized.


Do I have to run a command to complete the process?

Do I have to run something to bring up speech?

On another topic, what is the first install choice

Android OS

Is this the Android phone system?

Would it come up with a desktop or command line prompt?

What speech would come up? Is it worth trying?

Thanks

Peter T.
