hello I am trying to use yasr its a screen reader for the blind, I did = the following apt-get install yasr flite eflite yasr is the screen reader and flite and eflite is the tts engine stuff = it needs how ever when I run=20 yasr at the command prompt I don't hear any speech. if sound support is not supported how easy would it be to put both in = colinux, and in astwind? whitch is the colinux with asterisk support. thanks hank ---------------------------------------- My Inbox is protected by SPAMfighter 1063 spam mails have been blocked so far.

No, not yet ;) But there are some reports of geting sound to work using the network. I think there is something about it in the wiki. You should have a look there. There were some posts about it in this mailing list or in the colinux-devel list. Make a little search and you may have luck. Regards, ~Nuno Lucas |

Would it be possible, given the appropriate drivers, for CoLinux to be able to access a PCI card on the PCI bus? Specifically, Asterisk uses kernel modules (Zaptel) to communicate with Digium's hardware such as the X100P card. This relies on a very strict 1,000 Hz interrupt timing to ensure proper audio. -- Vice President of N2Net, a New Age Consulting Service, Inc.

I think your biggest problem (at least at the current colinux state) would be the strict timing you require. Timer interrupts are more or less emulated now, and could not give the resolution you intend. But you would have problems if you use DMA in same way, as that is controlled by windows. A possible solution to your problem would be a sort of "linux proxy drivers", who would transfer messages between your application and a windows driver. That driver would then make the required low level work (using the appropriate windows mechanisms). Hope I have helped you. Regards, ~Nuno Lucas |

There's no audio hw support in coLinux yet, you'll need a sound daemon on windows side that handles streaming audio over network. Actually, I have been testing latest festival release on colinux-20040910. I have cygwin with esound package installed on windows side, using tap adapter, daemon executing as follows (ip address refers to windows side of tap): esd -tcp -bind 192.168.0.1 -port 15001 -public esound is also installed in colinux, and I've added following lines to siteinit.scm : (Parameter.set 'Audio_Method 'Audio_Command) (Parameter.set 'Audio_Required_Rate 22050) (Parameter.set 'Audio_Required_Format 'raw) (Parameter.set 'Audio_Command "esdcat -s 192.168.0.1:15001 -m -r 22050 < $FILE") Now, I can hear speech synthesized in colinux by festival. flite does not have scheme interface so this does not directly apply, but I guess you've got the point. >if sound support is not supported how easy would it be to put both in colinux, and in astwind? whitch is the colinux with asterisk support. AstWind does not support any of that hardware, it is stated as a packet voice installation: http://www.digium.com/index.php?menu=astwind <quote> Most VoIP only features are available on the Windows version, although there is currently no support for any hardware interfaces. ... Through the coLinux networking subsystem, Asterisk has access to the network and can participate fully as a unique server. </quote> -- A. Alper Atici OpenPGP KeyID: 0xB824F550 |
