| fsmithred | I tried a speech-synthesis install with that excalibur iso. Both regular and expert. Both hung on boot right after finding 1 sound card. I guess it found the one on the motherboard. Not sure if it got lost trying to find the one on the nvidia vid card. | 00:07 |
|---|---|---|
| onefang | fsmithred: You mean aataaj hung on boot after announcing a single card? Not just paused while it cycles through all those sound devices you didn't know you had, none of which are attached to speakers. It does seem to actually stop outputting text after the first one, but then picxs up again when the script is done. Think I need a flush in there. | 07:29 |
| onefang | Takes forever on my main computer, coz it has over a dozen. | 07:29 |
| onefang | The JACK side of things worked fine on it's first live performance this morning, when I dragged one of my other computers to the park to play music with it. | 07:31 |
| onefang | Made the guy jump that was standing next to the main speaker when I booted the computer, and the main speaker talked right into his ear. lol | 07:33 |
| onefang | So in this case piano music was coming out of the main speaker via the line out device, and out of my headphones on the headphone socket device at the same time. Likely also coming out of the screens speakers, if it had any. That's my JACK goal accomplished. Still gotta get the purely ALSA solution to work as well. | 07:36 |
| onefang | One of the reasons my main computer has over 12 audio devices is my graphics card has 6. Your nVidia card might also have more than you expect. The computer I carried with me today has nVidia graphics, two graphics ports, three audio output devices. I'm starting to expect that now. lol | 07:41 |
| onefang | Spent parts of yesterday cleaning up the experimental code. Still more of that to do. | 08:06 |
| onefang | Damn, even copious flushes didn't help. | 11:16 |
| onefang | No idea why it pauses the text output. Only does that at boot time, not when running it in a logged in shell. | 11:22 |
| fsmithred | onefang, that was a netinstall iso I was using | 12:10 |
| fsmithred | excalibur | 12:11 |
| fsmithred | Not sure where this goes. I upgraded a speech-synth install to excalibur and lost the desktop due to 400 held packages, so I then upgraded it to ceres and got the desktop back. No problem there. | 17:30 |
| fsmithred | But when I type passwords, instead of saying "bullet bullet bullet..." the screen reader recites the actual characters I'm typing. | 17:31 |
| fsmithred | Not cool. | 17:31 |
| Xenguy | Seems odd, but given it's a screen reader, perhaps it's worth checking with someone who regularly uses such accessibility features to confirm what the best practice for this use case should be? | 17:57 |
| fsmithred | uh, best practice is in the daedalus behavior where it doesn't announce your password to everyone in the room. | 18:05 |
| fsmithred | someone who knows the code is needed | 18:05 |
| Xenguy | Seems logical to not shout passwords out loud 8 -D | 18:10 |
| fsmithred | it's ceres, so maybe it'll get fixed soon. | 18:12 |
| fsmithred | OK, something must have needed a full restart. Now it says nothing when I type password. | 19:22 |
| onefang | At least it wasn't announcing your password on all audio devices at once. | 23:01 |
