Gestion de numlock rc.numlock => dans /etc/rc.d/rc.local ou servicessetup? Note Pulse audio cause dae's posisioning not to work correctly, so try run it on pure alsa if you can. I run Dae with a wav file, and it starts playing as expected, but I can't stop playback. The program doesn't detect my keypresses correctly. When I press any of the keys from "F1" to "F5," it says O inactive here (Aiyumi) --- To adjust the volume there are several ways. 1. Type: alsamixer then: use the page up key to increase the volume by 5% use the page down key to decrease the volume by 5% pres Esc to leave the application (this is a ncurses app, but you don't need all the features). You can make the setting permanent typing as root: alsactl store 2. Type: amixer For instance to set the main volume to 70% type: amixer sset Master 70% To know more, type: man amixer or amixer -h 3. Type: pamixer For instance to set the voulue to 70% for the default sink: pamixer --set-volume 7O To know more, type: pamixer -h --- To adjust the keyboard rate: In console mode: man kbdrate I have read this (didn't check): Add atkbd.softrepeat=1 on the kernel command line if you need fast repeat rate and low delay. Without the trick, the hardware delay is limited by 250 ms, and the maximum repeat rate is 30. For the most people who use arrows for navigation in text editor or command line, the rate is too low, and the delay is too high. You could include this in lilo.conf or elilo.conf in a line begining with append = In graphical mode you can use the command xset, e.g. xset r rate 810 30 man xset to know more There is also a plugin for mate-panel --- In Slint with chromium provided by AlienBob: wget http://the-brannons.com/kgejglhpjiefppelpmljglcjbhoiplfn.json su mkdir -p /usr/lib64/chromium/extensions mv kgejglhpjiefppelpmljglcjbhoiplfn.json /usr/lib64/chromium/extensions/ Also, as a reminder, to allow ChromeVox to act as a client for speech-dispatcher by default, edit /etc/chromium/00-default.conf so the last line becomes: CHROMIUM_FLAGS="$CHROMIUM_FLAGS --enable-speech-synthesis --enable-speech-dispatcher" For the records, the json file is mentioned here: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+show/lkcr/docs/accessibility/chromevox.md The fist time you start chromium after a few seconds you should hear: "ChromeVox spoken feedback is ready". link for the default shortcuts: http://www.chromevox.com/keyboard_shortcuts.html To access the Options tab before a ChromeVox key binding be set: F10 move the focus to Chromium options, then Left arrow move the focus to a drop down menu for ChromeVox, the second entry menu from the top is the Options tab, where you can set the ChromeVox key binding. You can change the voice from the ChromeVox Options GUI. --- How-to get an accessible login challenge in DropBox: Yes. Do this: 1) Check that you have the sborepos from Eric Hameleers set in your /etc/slapt-get/slapt-getrc 2) install the client slapt-get -i dropbox-client 3) Get python-gpgme ftrom https://slackbuilds.org to be able to chack the engine dpwnload's signature. spi -i pygpgme 4) Chacke that Firefox be your default web browser 5) You'll need to download the engine. Two ways to do that: 5a) in a terminal type: dropbox start -i Then an accessible pop-up window will ask you to confirm the download 5b) start dropbox from the desktop menu: Applications=>Internet=>dropbox You will get the same pop-up window to confirm the download. 6) Be patient. Downloading the engine takes a while. When it's done an accessible login window will open up in Firefox login window, where you can either log in a set up a new account. Files to share are stored in ~/Dropbox --- From Jeffery Wright After upgrading to a no-alsa version of Firefox: install patchelf and apulse. cd to /usr/lib/firefox-esr and issue the following command: sudo patchelf --set-rpath /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/apulse/ libxul.so You might need to adjust the paths to apulse and Firefox(doesn't seem to work if you use the full path to libxul.so and the page I found this on implied apulse should be in /usr/lib instead. But I'm now running Firefox-esr 60 and have sound in the browser still. Well, I'm off to put this in a script just in case I need to do this with every firefox upgrade. --- I have found the commit: USB connections for speakup: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/8a21ff775f5654eb078ae57ba64cdbd32b9297c4#diff-8e7670fa07116811bb30dac0c10eb8cb -- mocp: ncurses two panes to play music -- From Peter Vágner: For setting up the default voice you can alter the speechd-voices variable. I don't know enough elisp syntaks to come up with proposed changes my-self, however I have used M-x customize-group speechd and customized my default voice to sk there. This is what I've got... speechd-voices (quote ((nil (name . "male1") (rate . 80) (pitch . 0) (volume . 100) (language . "sk")))) This is the default voice and it applies to all content. Content meaning all the textual data in the editor where you have no language set (the default). Default emacs prompts are most likelly coming from emacs localization thus those strings already carry some information about its language. And speechd-el is applying such a language voice when passing these strings to speech-dispatcher for TTS. Perhaps there is a way to override this somehow forcing the default voice everywhere but I like it the way it's currently working thus I haven't looked into it. For changing voice and rate on the fly there are C-e d l and C-e d r key bindings or for rate even C-e 1 (slowest) to C-e 9 (fastest) presets.
