Do you mean /dev/softsynth? When I do `cat /dev/synth` it just returns without any output. Here is what that displays when I start `cat /dev/softsynth` and then switch to TTY1 and type `echo "Hello"`: # cat /dev/softsynth 2s5p5r5v1x0b0o5f e c h o space quote +3p H -3p5p e l l o quote Hello root at debian: P This is more like what I am expecting, and it does seem to indicate that speakup and speakup_soft are working correctly. Thank you, Aaron
