I put the file that Lorenzo sent me in /usr/local/etc/speech-dispatcher/modules as speak.conf (I am using a packaged Speech-Dispatcher). I then edited speechd.conf and added a line like AddModule "speak" "sd_speak" "speak.conf" "/var/log/speech-dispatcher/speak.log" Then I have a line like DefaultModule speak and then LanguageDefaultModule "en" "speak" When I killall speech-dispatcher then run it again, it does not seem to recognise the existence of this synth. When I do spd-say -o speak "hello" it speaks with Flite! Also, it does not create a logfile for speak such as I have set in that addmodule line above. Any ideas?

I probably can help with the compilation of portaudio as I have now managed on my desktop using slackware (I guess Robby is using slackware as slapt-get was mentioned). The solution, go to www.portaudio.com and download portaudio_v18.zip. unzip it somewhere (I did it in /usr/src/). Change to the portaudio directory (cd /usr/src/portaudio_v18/), and make a Makefile link to the Makefile.linux (ln ./Makefile.linux ./Makefile). Now just run "make" and "make libinstall". You now need to create the link for the lib (ln /usr/local/lib/libportaudio.so /usr/lib/libportaudio.so.0) assuming you didn't change the installation directory. Now espeak should run. > > From > Michael Whapples > _______________________________________________ > Speakup mailing list > Speakup@braille.uwo.ca > http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD4DBQFEOpMtwamDI1Gy2GIRAqbkAKCI0z1JSgWpmSehGkOYy6pyc/w1ewCSA2b7 MGgb7cE3uVzWwTa0RW1qpg== =pJeT -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
