Hi All,
I'm hoping some of you might have some ideas for me
to try getting Orca going on Skywave Linux.
Skywave Linux is an image of Ubuntu with the mate
desktop and i3 window manager, whatever that is.
Here's what it reads on that page about
that:
"Skywave Linux is a 64 bit system, built on a base
of
Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, uses the MATE Desktop and i3 Window Manager. It is the additional digital signal processing, networking, and signal decoding applications that set Skywave Linux apart from its original base software." When I installed onto a thumb drive, I got as far
as getting espeak to say something, but spd-say hasn't worked.
This is on a VmWare session.
I've done apt update and apt install gnome-orca and
apt install speech-dispatcher and apt install alsa-base pulseaudio and apt
install speakup.
Of course I used sudo and I did them
successively, when I couldn't get anything else to work, I would try one, and
test for TTS, and then try the next, and so on.
The command speaker-test -c 2
does give me the white sound, so I know that the
speakers aren't muted.
Thanks for any ideas.
Glenn
