Hi,
By the sound of it you want to use speakup with software speech. You
might know this, but if not, you also need to install speech-dispatcher
and speechd_up. You also need to create a device in /dev using mknod and
start the software speech in a specific order.
I have software speech through these programs going under fedra and
debian, so I might be able to help if this is what you want to do.

Hello all. I am new to linux so sorry if I'm asking questions that
have been answered before. I am having trouble getting festival and
dectalk to work. I have installed festival but it doesn't seem to wan't to
talk. I am using Deabian linux 3.1 sarge with the Speakup curnal Version
2.6. I downloaded festival from debian using apt-get to download and
install the package but it doesn't want to talk. My sound is working
because I can play a CD from the gnome desktop. I also purchased a copy of
Dectalk rt. I have unpacked the file but I can't run the installer. Is
there a spesific directory I need to unpack the files into in order to get
the installer to
When I ordered Dectalk software, I received an email message with
instructions for installing it. You should provide details as to how you
went about trying to install the software and exactly what went wrong
including the text of any error messages you got.
