Hi everyone. I'm trying to upgrade my Gentoo system to use Systemd |
2 |
instead of Openrc. I use the Speakup screen reader built into my |
3 |
kernel and the Espeak software synthesizer. I also use Espeakup to |
4 |
connect the two. Starting Espeakup was easy under Openrc using an |
5 |
Init script which the ebuild installed, but I cannot figure out how to |
6 |
start it under Systemd. As I understand it, you can only start a |
7 |
program under Systemd if you have the appropriate Systemd service file |
8 |
in /usr/lib/system/system. I have played around with USE flags and |
9 |
re-installed Espeakup several times. Try as I might, I cannot get the |
10 |
Gentoo Espeakup ebuild version 0.71 to install a Systemd service file. |
11 |
For this reason I cannot start Espeakup and now have no speech. Does |
12 |
anyone on this list have experience of running Espeakup under Systemd? |
13 |
If so, I'd be very grateful to hear how you did it. |

Many thanks for any help. |
