Sound problem

["C.L.N.Prasad" <popra_31@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi friends

   i am a new member to this list.my name is Prasad Chaturvedula.

    i installed the Red Hat Linux 6.0 recently.i am trying to make emacspeak work on my machine.but i am facing lot many problems.

1.i had problem configuring my sound card.my sound card is YAMAHA DS-XG.the driver for this is not available in my kernel.it seems ,i need to have the 2.2.18 or 2.4.0 kernel.so i cannot start using emacspeak right now.do i need to download the whole kernel or can i do something like an upgrade?also where are these downloads available?

 

2.where can i find the rpm packages for packades ppp and mtools?

 

3.where will i find the Linux version of the Via Voice Outloud synth?

 

 forgive me for the questionnaire format.but i wanted to be as clear as possible.Thank you.
