Hi all
Got arch base system running here pretty nicely. Accept that I don't get speech from espeakup once I've entered my username and my passwd to login. This base system is pretty basic, and I didn't install using any script, neither the archinstall that's came with arch by default nore other scripts. Here is what I have appended for my installation.
pacstrap -i /mnt base linux linux-headers alsa-utils alsa-plugins espeakup espeak-ng speakup-utils pipewire pipewire-alsa speech-dispatcher.
After all was complete, I chroot into the system, configured a few things, install some more stuff like the grub bootloader and all that. After everything is done, I've exited from chroot, and shutdown the VM.
But the moment of truth is disappointing, because no speech is came through when I've booted up the system. Tried alsamixer then up arrow a few times, right arrow once, up arrow a few times, no luck.
Anything I'm missing here? Been wanting to try ratpoison with this thing.
