Correct, and that's what I realized as I was posting to the Speakup list |
| 2 |
yesterday. I'm going to double-check my motherboard manual next chance I get |
| 3 |
to make sure Asus didn't sneak a serial header in there that I can use... |
| 4 |
but it's not likely for this board, sadly, which I should have considered |
| 5 |
when I bought it. But as long as I want speech from boot time, the USB to |
| 6 |
serial route isn't going to help. |

Thanks again for the suggestion though, Michael. |

Yes, that works fine for emacspeak. I was doing that about 10 years ago, |
| 24 |
before I switched to software speech. Presumably, it would also work well |
| 25 |
for yasr, since it can use an emacspeak speech server. |
| 26 |
However, it won't work at all for Speakup, since Speakup communicates |
| 27 |
directly with the serial ports that used to be standard ON PCs. |
