Discussion:
[Grml] speakup.synth boot parameter and grml2hd

Hello,
I noticed that in grml2hd when it prompts you for which boot parameters
should be used for the append line it gives the speakup one as
speakup_synth although now grml uses speakup.synth, therefore users
can't add speakup.synth to an installed system through the interface,
they have to do it manually using the boot loader. I noticed this when
using a grml 2009.05RC2 CD (I know that grml 2009.05 has been released
but I had the rc2 CD to hand when I needed to perform the install and I
have just updated grml2hd on my system and examined the source code and
this bug seems to still be present).

Excellent catch, thanks!

Recorded in our BTS as http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue689

It should be fixed by upload of grml2hd (1.2.3) to the grml
repository. Would be great if you could give it a try and let us
know whether it's fixed for you.

What is the best way for me to test this? Do I need to just install a
later version of grml2hd when running the CD (eg. aptitude update;
aptitude install grml2hd) or do I need to download a new CD image (ouch,
that will hit transfer allowance)?

The first should work; this morning I got a new grml2hd via
safe-upgrade. (installed grml-2008-11)
If you want the latest grml2hd on CD, you only can find it on the GRML
daily CDs, I guess.

This is of course wrong.

Adding
"deb http://deb.grml.org/ grml-testing main"
to your sources list will enable you to get the latest packages from grml.

Right. And as soon as grml2hd is reported as working fine I'll
upload the package to the grml-stable repository as well.

I have just tried installing using grml2hd 1.2.3 and it seems to have
worked, add it to stable.

On this topic, it means that grml 2009.05 CD images will be all using
grml2hd 1.2.2, so suffering from this problem. Knowing about the bugs in
grml2hd I could use aptitude to upgrade grml2hd for me. Should I be
unaware of other potential bugs in the release CD, is there a way I
could just run a command to retrieve critical updates? I mean that
currently running "aptitude update" and "aptitude safe-upgrade" will get
me more than just bug fixes.

Nice! Would you mind to add this to grml-tips?

(Btw: a kind of "grml-tips update" to update the collection from the
repository would be a nice feature..)

Why not just update the grml-tips Debian package? :)

Hi,

What is the best way for me to test this? Do I need to just install a
later version of grml2hd when running the CD (eg. aptitude update;
aptitude install grml2hd) or do I need to download a new CD image (ouch,
that will hit transfer allowance)?
The first should work; this morning I got a new grml2hd via
safe-upgrade. (installed grml-2008-11)
If you want the latest grml2hd on CD, you only can find it on the GRML
daily CDs, I guess.
This is of course wrong.

Adding
"deb http://deb.grml.org/ grml-testing main"
to your sources list will enable you to get the latest packages from grml.

I noticed that in grml2hd when it prompts you for which boot parameters
should be used for the append line it gives the speakup one as
speakup_synth although now grml uses speakup.synth, therefore users
can't add speakup.synth to an installed system through the interface,
they have to do it manually using the boot loader. I noticed this when
using a grml 2009.05RC2 CD (I know that grml 2009.05 has been released
but I had the rc2 CD to hand when I needed to perform the install and I
have just updated grml2hd on my system and examined the source code and
this bug seems to still be present).
Excellent catch, thanks!
Recorded in our BTS as http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue689
It should be fixed by upload of grml2hd (1.2.3) to the grml
repository. Would be great if you could give it a try and let us
know whether it's fixed for you.
