proudhawk | ok, anyone have some time? I placed 10.04 LTS on a powerbook G3. the only thing that won;t work is orca. espeak will not speak and generates a huge log file with bad instruction ))).... nd the default synthasizer reverts to dummy and all that says is to check the logs | 03:17 |
---|---|---|
proudhawk | without a working orca, I can't use that machine portably. as it is, I have to ssh into it just to use it | 03:17 |
proudhawk | so? anyone have a clue or am I whistling in the dark here (bad joke from a blind person, but what can I say) | 03:18 |
proudhawk | ooops. thats bad instruction 0000 | 03:19 |
proudhawk | well, I've been in here over 2 hours and not one peep. what kind of help channel is this? | 05:59 |
proudhawk | gah! I give up. no answers here | 07:19 |
AlanBell | dammit | 07:29 |
AlanBell | need more people idling in here | 07:30 |
UndiFineD | good morning | 11:06 |
AlanBell | morning | 11:06 |
AlanBell | ah, UndiFineD, have you seen the personas and background to that project? | 11:07 |
UndiFineD | yes I have seen the page | 11:08 |
AlanBell | which one do you want to take on? | 11:09 |
AlanBell | Daniela would be a good one if you know orca | 11:09 |
UndiFineD | yes i can do that | 11:18 |
* AlanBell updates some wiki pages | 11:24 | |
=== JanC_ is now known as JanC | ||
proudhawk | ok, anyone alive in here? | 18:00 |
UndiFineD | hello proudhawk | 18:01 |
UndiFineD | you were in before :) | 18:02 |
UndiFineD | proudhawk, you had a question about orca / espeak ? | 18:02 |
proudhawk | there uou are | 18:03 |
UndiFineD | sorry, I was asleep earlier | 18:04 |
proudhawk | I have a problem on 10.04 LTS where orca doesn't work correctly. everything else works except that one thing (and only in the dummy driver) | 18:04 |
proudhawk | this is on a powerbook G3 lombard | 18:05 |
UndiFineD | I have not encountered that issue before but I will search for it, for a potential cause | 18:05 |
proudhawk | the espeak logs are like 700 MB large | 18:06 |
proudhawk | I can post snippets of logs here. | 18:06 |
UndiFineD | please, paste logs to paste.ubuntu.com | 18:07 |
proudhawk | I'll have to trim the espeak one. its huge | 18:07 |
UndiFineD | I understand :) | 18:07 |
proudhawk | hang on one. ssh'ing into that box now. | 18:09 |
proudhawk | http://paste.ubuntu.com/525209/ | 18:13 |
proudhawk | there is the paste | 18:14 |
proudhawk | I hate having to use voiceover on an ssh llink just to use a machine I want to use by itself | 18:14 |
proudhawk | I haven't tried 10.10 LTS yet | 18:16 |
UndiFineD | sorry proudhawk I just had a orca crash on me myself | 18:17 |
UndiFineD | 10.10 is not a LTS version | 18:19 |
proudhawk | oh really? its up there | 18:19 |
UndiFineD | but the official support lasts till the next Long Term Support version | 18:20 |
proudhawk | ok, so, I stick with 10.04 and try to figure out why orca won't use the default synth and espeak spits out a huge log, slows the machine to the point of unusability and then forces a hard boot | 18:22 |
UndiFineD | is this your message ? | 18:22 |
UndiFineD | When starting espeak, the following error message is displayed. Invalid | 18:22 |
UndiFineD | instruction 0000 for phoneme followed by a letter such as h or l. This message | 18:22 |
UndiFineD | is repeatedly shown in the terminal untill espeak ends with a segmentation | 18:22 |
UndiFineD | fault. I am using Debian Squeeze on a powerpc64 machine. Thanks. | 18:22 |
proudhawk | no | 18:22 |
proudhawk | part of that is related, but is not my message | 18:23 |
UndiFineD | then it is found by another powerpc user as well | 18:23 |
UndiFineD | proudhawk, there is a patch available | 18:30 |
UndiFineD | it was released on august 1st | 18:30 |
UndiFineD | so you will need a version higher than: 1.43.03 | 18:31 |
proudhawk | it didnt update then | 18:31 |
UndiFineD | on ubuntu 10.10 that is: espeak --help | 18:32 |
UndiFineD | eSpeak text-to-speech: 1.44.04 14.Sep.10 | 18:32 |
proudhawk | too many messages at once. I didn;'t understand any of that | 18:33 |
UndiFineD | ubuntu 10.10 does have the patched version | 18:33 |
UndiFineD | it is espeak version 1.44.04 | 18:33 |
proudhawk | ok | 18:34 |
UndiFineD | released on september 14th | 18:34 |
proudhawk | so I need to get the 10.10 version | 18:34 |
UndiFineD | let me search for that one in 10.04 | 18:35 |
proudhawk | ok | 18:35 |
UndiFineD | you can download the .deb file and install it manually | 18:41 |
UndiFineD | it only depends on one library | 18:41 |
UndiFineD | libportaudio0 | 18:41 |
UndiFineD | you can download it from this location | 18:42 |
UndiFineD | http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/e/espeak/espeak-data_1.44.05~really-1.44.04-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb | 18:43 |
UndiFineD | http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/e/espeak/libespeak1_1.44.05~really-1.44.04-0ubuntu1_i386.deb | 18:45 |
UndiFineD | http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/e/espeak/espeak_1.44.05~really-1.44.04-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb | 18:45 |
proudhawk | you keep sending too fast, growl sends everything to voiceover at the same time | 18:46 |
proudhawk | can you send the link for the download and whatever instructions needed to install? | 18:46 |
proudhawk | tooo many at once | 18:46 |
Pici | Er, some of those links are for different arches. | 18:46 |
UndiFineD | yeah I just noticed Pici | 18:47 |
UndiFineD | proudhawk, I will make it easy | 18:48 |
proudhawk | ok, what I got was a lot of noise because they all tried to speak at once. have a heart heree, I am blind and need to get messages 1 line at time | 18:48 |
Pici | Sorry. | 18:49 |
UndiFineD | http://paste.ubuntu.com/525225/ | 18:50 |
proudhawk | none of those links seem to be for ppc | 18:51 |
UndiFineD | ubuntu only releases i386 and amd64 | 18:51 |
proudhawk | grrrrrr | 18:52 |
UndiFineD | there is http://espeak.sourceforge.net/ | 18:52 |
proudhawk | great.... I'm going to have to compile from sources | 18:53 |
proudhawk | you have any idea how long thats going to take on a 333 Mhz processor? | 18:54 |
UndiFineD | long enough and terribly confusing for you | 18:55 |
proudhawk | it was bad enough when I had a little sight, now that I have none, its a new ball game | 18:56 |
UndiFineD | my girlfriend is blind on one eye and so is my daughter | 18:57 |
proudhawk | hmmm. one eye only? | 18:57 |
UndiFineD | the other side is failing, Kootz disease | 18:58 |
proudhawk | I am cursed with having BOTH eyes in that condition | 18:58 |
proudhawk | ouch | 18:59 |
proudhawk | which one has that | 18:59 |
UndiFineD | so now, I am afraid I will have to find someone else with a powerpc to compile a linux binary espeak for you | 19:00 |
UndiFineD | both of them | 19:01 |
proudhawk | I wish I had a g4 here. then I could have you remotely access it | 19:01 |
UndiFineD | the last one ibm made is a power6 | 19:02 |
proudhawk | oh man. I can teell you that you are going to be in for a lot of emotions | 19:02 |
UndiFineD | very rare | 19:02 |
proudhawk | so I've heard | 19:03 |
UndiFineD | we already are, all of us have ADD | 19:03 |
proudhawk | just wait, there's more | 19:03 |
proudhawk | mine happened 4 months ago from an infection | 19:05 |
proudhawk | this means I m still dealing with the loss | 19:06 |
proudhawk | so, how far along are they? | 19:08 |
UndiFineD | so besides learning you dealing with the change too | 19:08 |
proudhawk | I would recammend they learn braille asap. better to learn now than later | 19:09 |
proudhawk | and, my spelling sucks | 19:10 |
UndiFineD | I make more typos than you in an hour | 19:11 |
proudhawk | rea lly? I am still relearning to touchtype | 19:11 |
UndiFineD | just posted the question to the forum and on #ubuntu | 19:14 |
UndiFineD | hope someone will respond soon | 19:15 |
UndiFineD | to compile it for you | 19:15 |
proudhawk | well, I might be able to get some sighted assistance here, but they wont be computer litterate | 19:15 |
proudhawk | I missed the first 2 lines of that, can you repeat | 19:15 |
UndiFineD | just posted the question to the forum and on #ubuntu | 19:16 |
proudhawk | ok | 19:16 |
UndiFineD | hope someone will respond soon | 19:16 |
proudhawk | ok | 19:16 |
proudhawk | I hope it doesn't take too long | 19:17 |
proudhawk | anyway, I can be reached via e-mail at eric.oyen@gmail.com | 19:19 |
proudhawk | if you need some help dealing with the blindness issues, let me know | 19:19 |
UndiFineD | thank you | 19:21 |
proudhawk | if you can, you can send notice there about the patch as well. I have to go, rent due | 19:22 |
proudhawk | bbiab | 19:23 |
UndiFineD | ok proudhawk | 19:25 |
UndiFineD | proudhawk, | 19:34 |
UndiFineD | it appears they are already available on another location | 19:34 |
Pendulum | hiya | 19:35 |
UndiFineD | he penelope | 19:35 |
JanC | hi UndiFineD ☺ | 19:39 |
UndiFineD | :) | 19:39 |
JanC | so, yeah, there is an archive for PPC, just not on the main archive server, but on the ports server instead | 19:39 |
UndiFineD | I am waiting for proudhawk to return | 19:40 |
JanC | also, the PPC builds are probably not well-tested, but you can only try... | 19:42 |
UndiFineD | the issue was this: http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-bugs-dist@lists.debian.org/msg809075.html | 19:45 |
JanC | makes sense | 19:47 |
proudhawk | I am back | 21:02 |
UndiFineD | great | 21:02 |
Pendulum | hi proudhawk | 21:02 |
Pendulum | btw, hi UndiFineD | 21:03 |
Pendulum | sorry I haven't been around. I did a couple days post-UDS at Disney and now I'm recovering and fighting ubuflu :-/ | 21:03 |
UndiFineD | we solved your issue proudhawk | 21:03 |
UndiFineD | http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7607669/get-espeak.sh | 21:03 |
proudhawk | is that for me? | 21:04 |
UndiFineD | yes | 21:04 |
proudhawk | I run the script there and it gets the file, correct? | 21:04 |
UndiFineD | yes, that script will get the files and install them | 21:05 |
JanC | eh, wouldn't it be better to set the correct sources? | 21:05 |
JanC | correct apt sources | 21:05 |
JanC | or is this for a debian system? | 21:06 |
UndiFineD | yes it would JanC | 21:06 |
UndiFineD | but it is eassier when he can hear what he is doing .. right | 21:06 |
JanC | oh, as a workaround to get started, right | 21:07 |
JanC | forgot about that, sorry | 21:07 |
proudhawk | this is why I will be running from an ssh session to the machine in question | 21:07 |
UndiFineD | do I need to repost the script proudhawk ? | 21:07 |
proudhawk | ok, had to install lynx there so I can get the script | 21:08 |
proudhawk | I copied the link | 21:09 |
UndiFineD | wget does the same thing, without leaving the commandline | 21:09 |
proudhawk | there is that | 21:09 |
UndiFineD | wget http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7607669/get-espeak.sh | 21:09 |
JanC | w3m is often installed by default instead of lynx nowadays | 21:09 |
proudhawk | btw, my xchat beeped but didn't report a message to growl. was that a whisper defind? | 21:10 |
UndiFineD | JanC, for proudhawk I leave deliberate pauzes in the chat | 21:11 |
JanC | UndiFineD: okay, I will shutup for now ☺ | 21:11 |
proudhawk | ok, I heard the beep, but no speech. | 21:11 |
UndiFineD | no I did not whisper to you proudhawk | 21:11 |
proudhawk | ok, something is up. I know there is text there, but growl doesn't think its a chan message. | 21:12 |
UndiFineD | you can execute the script by | 21:13 |
UndiFineD | bash get-espeak.sh | 21:13 |
proudhawk | ok | 21:13 |
proudhawk | btw, you sent text to the chan differently than this last 2 times. I had to screen revview to find out what it was | 21:14 |
charlie-tca | hello, Pendulum | 21:14 |
Pendulum | hi charlie-tca | 21:14 |
charlie-tca | Made it home? | 21:15 |
charlie-tca | It was great to meet you finally at UDS! | 21:15 |
Pendulum | yes | 21:15 |
Pendulum | good to meet you too | 21:15 |
charlie-tca | Let me know if there are any issues with the wiki changes. It is a continuous process | 21:16 |
charlie-tca | I have two days a week to documentation/wiki/etc | 21:16 |
charlie-tca | two days to bugs now | 21:16 |
proudhawk | looks like some errors. let me paste to the site | 21:18 |
UndiFineD | ok | 21:18 |
proudhawk | http://paste.ubuntu.com/525308/ | 21:20 |
Pendulum | I got home about 3 hours ago so I am no where near that organised yet | 21:20 |
UndiFineD | get-espeak.sh: line 4: pause: command not found | 21:20 |
UndiFineD | that aint so bad | 21:21 |
proudhawk | look further down | 21:21 |
proudhawk | it gets dicey | 21:21 |
UndiFineD | ah yes | 21:21 |
UndiFineD | wrong order of installation | 21:22 |
proudhawk | oh man! | 21:22 |
charlie-tca | Pendulum: sorry. Sounds like you might want to get a little rest | 21:22 |

UndiFineD | yes it is, because that one is not available | 21:27 |
Pendulum | charlie-tca: yeah. i really have only about 3 things I'm planning on getting done | 21:28 |
proudhawk | thats nuts. not available. I hate having to do this the hard way. I just once I'd like to have something that "just works" | 21:29 |
UndiFineD | so do we proudhawk | 21:29 |
proudhawk | can you say that in regular chat. growl isn't reading that | 21:30 |
Pendulum | proudhawk: err. I meant only 3 (minor) things I plan on getting done this week | 21:30 |
UndiFineD | so do we | 21:30 |
proudhawk | hmmmm. I think I see the probelem. growl thinks that anything addressed to me is not a chan message. | 21:31 |
UndiFineD | I am looking for the libportaudio2 library | 21:33 |
Pendulum | bah, I fail at typing | 21:33 |

JanC | proudhawk: what version of Ubuntu are you trying to use? | 21:43 |
UndiFineD | yes like JanC said you need a correct apt sources.list | 21:43 |
proudhawk | got one handy? | 21:43 |
UndiFineD | wget http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7607669/sources.list | 21:46 |
UndiFineD | and that one needs to replace /etc/apt/sources.list | 21:48 |
proudhawk | replace that one with my current one? | 21:48 |
proudhawk | thats what I thought | 21:48 |
JanC | UndiFineD: I'm not sure that's correct | 21:49 |
proudhawk | let me make a backup first | 21:49 |
JanC | UndiFineD: you probably need to remove the "ubuntu" at the end of the URL | 21:49 |
JanC | URLs | 21:49 |
UndiFineD | oh ok | 21:49 |
proudhawk | kk. let me edit it | 21:49 |
UndiFineD | I am not sure if security does patches for powerpc | 21:50 |

UndiFineD | JanC, is it dpkg --force-install | 22:12 |
proudhawk | nope | 22:12 |
JanC | you should use apt-get | 22:12 |
JanC | if possible | 22:13 |
UndiFineD | which packages are conflicting ? | 22:14 |
UndiFineD | libjack-jackd2-0 and ? | 22:14 |
proudhawk | libjack-jackd2-0 conflicts with libjack0 | 22:14 |
proudhawk | looking force-help now | 22:14 |
proudhawk | looks like force-all will work | 22:16 |
proudhawk | it didn't like that. had to upgrade libstdc++6 and than do an apt-get -f install | 22:19 |
proudhawk | and now its removing orca | 22:19 |
proudhawk | libjack-jackd2-0: Depends: libstdc++6 (>= 4.5) but 4.4.3-4ubuntu5 is to be installed | 22:20 |
proudhawk | this is the problem with bleeding edge | 22:21 |
UndiFineD | yes | 22:21 |
UndiFineD | proudhawk, | 22:25 |
UndiFineD | would it help if we could find someone local for you ? | 22:25 |
proudhawk | definitely | 22:26 |
proudhawk | I just don't have any spare money to give them | 22:26 |
proudhawk | btw, I am in phoenix arizona | 22:26 |
UndiFineD | money ? most us love to help out, for free | 22:27 |
proudhawk | :) I usually try to donate some funds. unfortunately, this month has been thin (fixed incomes are a drag) | 22:27 |
proudhawk | libjack-jackd2-0 depends on libstdc++6 (>= 4.5); however: | 22:31 |
proudhawk | Version of libstdc++6 on system is 4.4.3-4ubuntu5 | 22:31 |
proudhawk | and I can't seem to find that later version. brb nature break | 22:32 |
UndiFineD | :) | 22:33 |
proudhawk | ok back | 22:35 |
UndiFineD | I found a loco channel for you: #Ubuntu-US-AZ | 22:35 |
UndiFineD | which you could join for local support and maybe meet up with people | 22:36 |
UndiFineD | wget http://ports.ubuntu.com/pool/main/g/gcc-4.5/libstdc++6_4.5.1-9ubuntu1_powerpc.deb | 22:38 |
proudhawk | linux never seemed to pose this much of a problem before (and that was back whe I only had limited eyesight). UndefineD ty for the info. btw, reguarding your family member and the other half that are going blind, you are going to find this much frustration. I am trying to work through it myself. all I can say is, be patient and if they say they can't do something, show them how | 22:38 |
UndiFineD | which is part of gcc-4.5 | 22:38 |
UndiFineD | so | 22:39 |
UndiFineD | sudo apt-get install gcc-4.5 | 22:39 |
proudhawk | it hung reading package lists | 22:41 |
UndiFineD | man your install gives issues | 22:42 |
proudhawk | this is just 10.04. I wonder what 10.10 LTS will bring | 22:43 |
UndiFineD | maybe it is best to find some local knowledgeable support first | 22:43 |
UndiFineD | proudhawk, we are working on that :) | 22:43 |
proudhawk | grrrrr. growl still doesn't read messages with my name in them | 22:44 |
UndiFineD | we are working on that :) | 22:44 |
UndiFineD | lets introduce you on #Ubuntu-US-AZ | 22:45 |
proudhawk | I am using Xchat with growl under OS X snow leopard. its the only accessible method I have to use irc with VoiceOVer | 22:45 |
proudhawk | certainly is slow in there | 22:52 |
UndiFineD | yorokobi spoke to me, but he is keeping quiet, probably because he thinks he cannot help | 22:53 |
proudhawk | hmmm. well, some assistance is better than none | 22:54 |
proudhawk | E: Couldn't find package gcc-4.5 | 22:56 |
UndiFineD | very odd | 22:58 |
UndiFineD | as it is there on the server | 22:59 |
