8 This is the Speakup screen reader. Think of it as a
9 video console for blind people. If built in to the
10 kernel, it can speak everything on the text console from
11 boot up to shutdown. For more information on Speakup,
12 point your browser at <http://www.linux-speakup.org/>.

16 Supported synthesizers are accent sa, accent pc,
17 appollo II., Auddapter, Braille 'n Speak, Dectalk
18 external (old), Dectalk PC (full length isa board),
19 Dectalk express, Doubletalk, Doubletalk LT or
20 Litetalk, Keynote Gold internal PC, software
21 synthesizers, Speakout, transport, and a dummy module
22 that can be used with a plain text terminal.
23
24 Speakup can either be built in or compiled as a module
25 by answering y or m. If you answer y here, then you
26 must answer either y or m to at least one of the
27 synthesizer drivers below. If you answer m here, then
28 the synthesizer drivers below can only be built as
29 modules.
30
31 These drivers are not standalone drivers, but must be
32 used in conjunction with Speakup. Think of them as
33 video cards for blind people.
34
35
36 The Dectalk pc driver can only be built as a module, and
37 requires software to be pre-loaded on to the card before
38 the module can be loaded. See the decpc choice below
39 for more details.

41 If you are not a blind person, or don't have access to
42 one of the listed synthesizers, you should say n.

121 In order to use the DecTalk PC driver, you must download
122 the dec_pc.tgz file from linux-speakup.org. It is in
123 the pub/linux/goodies directory. The dec_pc.tgz file
124 contains the software which must be pre-loaded on to the
125 DecTalk PC board in order to use it with this driver.
126 This driver must be built as a module, and can not be
127 loaded until the file system is mounted and the DecTalk
128 PC software has been pre-loaded on to the board.
