For some strange reason, speechd-up seems to die at random for no apparent reason. This seemed to happen on my 32-bit system as well, but it happened much less frequently. It used to happen about once a day, but it now can happen anywhere from 2 to 3 seconds to 2 or more hours after starting it. There seems to be no pattern at all to this occurrence, but sometimes speechd-up itself dies and sometimes it seems to crash speech-dispatcher so that restarting speech-dispatcher is the only thing that fixes it. I should also note here that although I am experiencing this problem while running a 32-bit version of the OS, I have been told that the same problem occurs when running a 64-bit Gentoo. Has anyone found a workaround for this problem or is there a newer version of speechd-up that fixes it? Thanks for any help, Lorenzo - -- I've always found anomalies to be very relaxing.
