Re: [orca-list] OT: Anybody know what happened to speakup?

[Didier Spaier <didier slint fr>]

Hello John,

The speakup project is indeed alive and well, and thr speakup list was 
down but
is back on line.

Indeed the speakup kernel driver are still there, but it depends on the
distribution to provide the drivers built-in or as modules or not at all.

If Ubuntu 2.04/Hirsute doesn't have kernel modules this issue issue 
should be
brought to Ubuntu, but are you sure they are not built-in?

Here (on Slint64-14.2) I type to check:
zgrep SPEAKUP /proc/config.gz

And the output is:
CONFIG_SPEAKUP=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_ACNTSA=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_APOLLO=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_AUDPTR=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_BNS=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_DECTLK=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_DECEXT=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_LTLK=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_SOFT=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_SPKOUT=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_TXPRT=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_DUMMY=m

Cheers,
Didier
