This is just a guess, but it sounds like your bonobo server for festival doesn't exist. Are you using a Slackware package for gnome-speech, or did you build it from source? On Debian, I have a dir called /usr/lib/bonobo/servers. In that dir, I have a file called: GNOME_Speech_SynthesisDriver_Festival.server That is the bonobo server for the festival Gnome-speech driver. I build my gnome-speech from source, so it is likely you will have the same. I also have a file in /usr/bin called festival-synthesis-driver This file is also a part of gnome-speech. If you have these files, check to make sure you have bonobo, orbit, and (I think) bonobo-ui installed. If you want to use DECtalk, you will need to build gnome-speech from source. Building it from source will be a good way to make sure you have all the other needed packages. Hope this helps.
