From acjlemmens at gmail.com Sun Jul 4 18:23:36 2021 From: acjlemmens at gmail.com (Jos Lemmens) Date: Sun, 4 Jul 2021 20:23:36 +0200 Subject: ebook-speaker 6.1 Message-ID: <20210704182335.GA19717@jlemmens.nl> Hello, On my site http://jlemmens.nl I released ebook-speaker 6.1. This version has some bug-fixes: 6.1 Bug in option d solved. Bug in command 'b' (in OPF books) solved. The config-file ~/.eBook-speaker.xml is now reread everytime the 't' command is given. Force english output using setlocale () when an external command like amixer or pactl is executed. Command 'A' and 'd' now takes in account the current level. Added the new keyboard-command 'w' to store the whole book to disk in WAV-format. Thereis also a .deb package file for amd64. And Pranav Lal has made a .deb package file for the armhf cpu. Best regards, Jos. -- Sent from Debian GNU/Linux 10.6 (Buster) ------------------------------- Jos Lemmens The Netherlands E-mail: acjlemmens at gmail.com Homepage: www.jlemmens.nl From dcrone215 at gmail.com Fri Jul 9 16:58:39 2021 From: dcrone215 at gmail.com (Daniel Crone) Date: Fri, 9 Jul 2021 11:58:39 -0500 Subject: getting to the desktop Message-ID: <6DA07791-F5DC-47C7-A4A8-525EE30B29A3@gmail.com> I am now running ubuntu 20.04 regular edition, and using orca.

I know this because when starting once, forgetting to connect the monitor, ubuntu could not log in. Might one be able to run ubuntu 20.04 without any monitor? Using orca, so I would almost never need one.

I believe it used to be defined as "Show the desktop" in the system's keyboard shortcuts, but it works here even though I no longer see the shortcut definition. ~Kyle From milton at kleinbedrijf.org Fri Jul 9 19:35:54 2021 From: milton at kleinbedrijf.org (milton) Date: Fri, 9 Jul 2021 21:35:54 +0200 Subject: getting to the desktop In-Reply-To: <6DA07791-F5DC-47C7-A4A8-525EE30B29A3@gmail.com> References: <6DA07791-F5DC-47C7-A4A8-525EE30B29A3@gmail.com> Message-ID: In Ubuntu GNOME you cannot access the desktop as before.

It was installed by flatpak and I did this, thinking if flatpak would be used, then I would get the latest gpodder. But after doing so, I got alerted a newer version is available. When hitting yes, it took me to the same page where I had gotten the instruction as to installing with flatpak in the first place. How may gpodder be updated once and for all?
