Hi, Thanks for your response. What i was looking for was for a two situation solution. The first and the reason i asked about knoppix was a drop in CD that came up with speech, software speech, in a graphical interface, a CLI would also work, that i could use for diagnostic, backup, and troubleshooting purposes. Are any of these distros drop in and up talking or can they be remastered to do so? Thanks. Dave.

I don't know if it comes with software speech but you can use any knoppix CD if you have a hardware synth. For software speech , I would use grml or ubuntu. Ubuntu gives you speech via orca in a graphical user environment. Grml gives you speech via speakup in a character interface. I use all 3 on different occasions but I probably use grml the most. You can google for the addresses of their web sites. They're easy to find. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dave" <dave.mehler@gmail.com> To: "'Blind sysadmins list'" <blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org> Sent: Friday, December 19, 2008 2:34 PM Subject: [Blind-sysadmins] knoppix with speech
Hello, Has anyone got knoppix with speech or a howto to make one? I'm wanting to boot a box with an accessible distro then install another which does not have terminal or live support. Thanks. Dave.
