[00:00] They aren't very far with it yet, but I can use orca with Xubuntu [00:01] It just takes more work to get it going, since I have to install and start ati-sp-registryd [00:03] that's not right, should be at-api-registryd [00:03] that's not right, should be at-spi-registryd [00:04] at-spi-registryd [00:04] Right. [00:04] c [00:05] lol [00:06] well, I guess I have to go try and eat something. [00:06] really shouldn't have started this distro upgrade on my machine that's already running ubuntu. gonna take hours. guess the ubuntu servers are swamped [00:15] paul_h: That they are. [00:16] JackyAlcine: I just made a generic driver for it [00:16] not using libopenmary, I didn't understand that [00:18] JackyAlcine: http://people.ubuntu.com/~alanbell/openmary.conf [00:18] JackyAlcine: put that in /etc/speech-dispatcher/modules [00:18] ooo. Oneiric changes list now exists... [00:18] JackyAlcine: then in /etc/speech-dispatcher/speechd.conf add a line to load the module [00:19] * TheMuso subscribes. [00:19] AddModule "openmary" "sd_generic" "openmary.conf" [00:19] JackyAlcine: then restart speech-dispatcher, then you should be good [00:20] Very interesting; I wonder if we can build a package for this.. [00:20] AlanBell: this is a generic sd driver for a new synth? [00:20] pleia2: yes yes yes! [00:20] paul_h: yes [00:21] JackyAlcine: or roll it into the speech dispatcher package or something [00:21] Best thing would be to get it into speech-dispatcher upstream. [00:21] would be trivial to point to a local openmary, but that one points to a fairly powerful server I put up [00:22] Indeed, but then openmary would have to be packaged and made a dependency of speechd if that's done, no? [00:22] And I remember hearing that packing Java applications is a bit tedious than the conventional process. [00:22] AlanBell: do you have a link to where I can hear a sample? [00:23] JackyAlcine: well the fun part of this is that I accepted the licenses y [00:23] JackyAlcine: well the fun part of this is that I accepted the licenses so you don't have to [00:23] paul_h: yes, one sec . . . [00:23] paul_h: have fun -> http://mumble.libertus.co.uk:59125/ [00:23] paul_h: try different voices [00:24] JackyAlcine: have a look at the openmary.conf file, it just does curl to a remote totally standard openmary instance [00:25] JackyAlcine: would be nice to get the parameters like volume and language/locale and voice working [00:25] * AlanBell is a bit drunk right now so don't ask difficult questions [00:25] Lol [00:26] But those can be manipulated via query parameters in the URI request. [00:26] the release party was great and skaet is nice [00:26] http://mary.dfki.de:59125/documentation [00:26] JackyAlcine: yeah, they can, but they need to be passed through from orca to speech dispatcher to openmary [00:27] $data is the text to say [00:27] Hmm, perhaps have an alternate application that modifies such settings and allow the conf read it from disk or some alternative location? [00:27] meh [00:27] there are parameters to put in the curl string [00:28] AlanBell: ok, I'll write up a draft post once I get the loco directory link :) [00:28] like $volume $language etc [00:28] $voice [00:28] I just have not figured them out yet [00:28] pleia2: that would be wonderful [00:28] Hmm, I'll see what I can do tonight into tomorrow night over here then. [00:28] AlanBell: thanks. very nice :) are they free? [00:29] But good work, AlanBell [00:29] thanks JackyAlcine [00:29] paul_h, every single one of them are free. [00:29] paul_h: they are an assortment of different kinds of free [00:29] I don't have any mbrola voices loaded because a) they are crap and b) they are not very nice [00:30] and c) they are not free enough [00:30] a) and b) were kind of the same weren't they [00:30] * AlanBell drinks coffee [00:35] AlanBell: crap and not very nice are closely related :) [00:50] If I hadn't been at a release party I would be making more sense [02:52] maco: awesome :) [03:52] pleia2: did you ever get an answer about the exhibition and blog? [03:53] hi does anybody know how i can change the name of an icon on a panel? [03:56] Fudge: Depends on what the icon is for/does. [03:57] Fudge: If its a launcher, you should be able to navigate to it on the panel, open the context menu i.e shift + f10, and change the name in the properties. [03:59] jsut has move remove lock to panel, no properties. its a menu [03:59] trying to rename menu to mint-menu [04:00] Right, so you'd have to hack the code that is responsible for that applet. [04:00] Since its not a launcher icon. [04:11] cant find it, oh well [05:46] anyone know what channel i can find screenlet info in [05:46] im looking to change screenlets units to farenhiet not celsius === API is now known as Guest40727 === Guest40727 is now known as apinheiro [10:59] maco: this is not true. QAccessible as frame work is needed independent of the bridges since Qt is cross platform. support for AT-SPI2 was in the works but AT-SPI2 got so behind that Qt people just went and made their own framework (QAccessible) which KAccessible uses === erkan^2 is now known as erkan^ [14:10] fregl: but on linux is that how it works? [14:12] fregl: im getting confused, sorry :( [14:13] fregl: oh, it was KAccessible that was "oh lets stop waiting" [14:13] from what sebastian sauer said. [15:25] maco: KAccessible is using QAccessible, just like the at-spi2 bridge, yes [17:15] Pendulum: yeah, AlanBell said it would be good, I have a loco directory entry now from -hu so I'll write some stuff up later === JanC_ is now known as JanC [19:14] loco directory entry for Invisible Exhibition: http://loco.ubuntu.com/events/team/949/detail/ :) [19:18] pleia2: awesome! [19:18] the only tricky thing is we need to arrange things ahead of time, so we need a vague idea of how many are coming the friday before UDS, and a final list so we can buy tickets monday evening at UDS [19:20] pleia2: either I can give you access to the blog or you can e-mail something to me or AlanBell ( AlanBell may be better if it's not done tonight because tomorrow I start almost 24 hours of travel) [19:21] Pendulum: I'll draft up something this evening and email it to both of you :) === erkan^2 is now known as erkan^
