Unless you build and install festival , you aren't going to get any speech from gnopernicus. The default voice for Gnopernicus uses festival. When I played with Slackware 10.0 recently, I noticed their wasn't a festival package. If you have the commercial DECtalk software, you can gry installing it and rebuilding the gnome-speech package. Another option is to get freeTTS working and rebuild gnome-speech so it can use it. To start gnopernicus, press alt-f2 in the X console and just type gnopernicus. You don't need any options. Hope this helps. Kenny On Sat, Aug 21, 2004 at 08:41:25AM -0700, zorkmed@qwest.net wrote: > okay, got it, but now how to start gnopernicus after that, I know there's > an -s option to enable speech. >
