It wasn't running speech or Emacspeak though. Most, if not all, of the EEEPC machines at the conference were not running the default distribution, which had been replaced by the user's choice of Debian, Ubuntu, etc. Apparently, Debian are working on a version of their distribution specifically for the EEEPC, so if you're a Debian person you might prefer it. Once you have your favourite distribution, whichever it may be, installed, the rest should be straightforward, as with any other Linux machine. As long as the audio hardware is recognized, it should all work. Someone on the BRLTTY mailing list reported problems with a braille display suspending regularly, but this was apparently a USB issue, and based on the ensuing thread, seemed to be dependent on the kernel version. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the emacspeak list or change your address on the emacspeak list send mail to "emacspeak-request@xxxxxxxxxxx" with a subject of "unsubscribe" or "help"
