And, you may need to figure out how to have both espeakup and speech-dispatcher working at the same time. In my experience they don't like each other very much. It's an old argument we keep having on this, and many related Linux lists. Sad, but true.

I finally have maid installed on my arch system. It looks different than ubuntu Nate because it does not have many applications on it. The major problem I am having is that orca does not speak. Espeakup in the command line works but as soon as I go into Nate orca although turned on does not work.
