Hello I have a Fedora 17 box. recently, I groupinstalled Gnome Desktop Environment. Next, I did orca -t, to configure orca. It seems that speech-dispatcher is started, but only the dummy module is working. I suppose it's due to the fact that espeak doesn't work from within the root account. Speech-dispatcher is started by systemd, and hence must be allowed to run as root, I think. Running espeak "test" from a regular user, works fine. From root, I get the following error: espeak: wave_pulse.cpp:691: size_t wave_write(void*, char*, size_t): Assertion ` stream' failed. Aborted (core dumped) So how do I get pulse/espeak to work as root on Fedora? regards, Lars _______________________________________________ Blinux-list mailing list Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
