Hi Again,
I realized what went wrong.
Typically when I install Linux, the first thing I
do is do apt update and then apt upgrade, before installing
anything.
I forgot to do this this time, so I did it after
having no luck with Voxin, and then installed voxin 3.3rc4 again, and restarted,
and then found Voxin in the synth list. BTW, it was always listed as IBM,
and not Voxin.
But it works now.
But the insert + space does not work on the mate
desktop for calling up Orca preferences, it did originally on this
install.
It also worked in the login window, but once it
booted to the desktop, I still had to run orca -s for the settings.
Not a big deal for me now, because I don't
typically change those once I got things how I like them.
I always turn off modifier keys and navigation
keys, and I raise the speed to 70, and lower the pitch to 40.
Also, I keep getting a Ubuntu error on boot up in
the desktop, and I enter on send error report, and I don't know if that helps or
not.
Maybe that error has something to do with the Orca
troubles I had.
Is there a way to scan system files, like Windows
SFC?
Thanks.
Glenn

Subject: Voxin Not Working Hi,
I just installed Ubuntu Mate
(ubuntu-mate-20.04.2.0-desktop-amd64)
into VmWare.
Orca is working, but I tried to install the latest
Voxin (IBM) which is voxin-enu-3.3rc4.x86_64.
and it seemed to install okay, but I didn't hear
the IBM speak a little during the install, like it usually does.
So after a reboot, I tried voxin 3.1 and
same.
Then I tried Voxin 2.2 with still no IBM
voice.
Strangely, now insert + space does not launch Orca
settings, it opens whatever I am focused on at the time.
So I ran orca -s and got the Orca settings, but IBM
was not in the list of synthesizers.
Anybody got a clue on this one?
Thanks.
Glenn
