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.
