[Bug 332962] Re: Please provide talking accessible bootloader

[dino99]

This is no more a supported version; and grub legacy upstream is also
stopped, only receiving possible random fixes locally. A new grub2
report should be created instead to request such a feature

** Package changed: grub (Ubuntu) => grub2 (Ubuntu)

** Tags removed: a11y

Title:
  Please provide talking accessible bootloader

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  you can hear a demonstration of the talking bootloader by going to www
  {dot} lalrecordings {dot} com ... this bug exists across all versions
  of Ubuntu... OpenSuse has a talking accessible bootloader that use
  software speech cut down to 8k very bad sounding but useable. I would
  like to see a full talking bootloader in all ubuntu versions
  especially the one for gnome. I am blind and may have to use the
  ubuntu bootloader both on line cd and when it is installed. OpenSuse
  has it, there is no reason why Ubuntu cannot have a talking
  bootloader. in OpenSuse, you know the boot menu is up by hearing a
  short beep. press f9 to start the bootloader talking screen reader
  that either uses ESpeak or .wav files cut down to 8khz. email me about
  this at jkenn337 {at sign} gmail {dot} com
