I'm wondering if this distro has removed a
repository that might be needed for my installs.
When I was doing all this on the thumb drive, I was
able to SSH into it from my Raspberry PI and I heard it reading out something
about some things not in this repository.
Would it be a bad idea to add a main repository
where all the packages I need to get it talking are located?
If there is a chance, what is the repository where
I can get either all that Orca needs, or regular Ubuntu packages?
Since I'm doing all this without feedback, I am
hoping it won't be too long a command for the repository.
The VmWare install so far has not opened itself to
SSH.
I've done the sudo add-apt-repository command in
the past.
Thanks for any help.

Subject: [orca-list] Trouble Getting Orca Working On
Skywave 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
