Hi Brandt,
1. If running speakup (not-speechd-up), run
list-espeak-ng-voices
and then set the chosen voice as root in:
/etc/espeakup.conf
2. If running speechd-up
set the language as root in:
/etc/speechd-up.conf
and the chosen synthesizer in:
/etc/speech-dispatcher/speechd-up.conf
spd-list tells what's available as synthesizers and voices.
Unfortunately it's not yet possible to set the voice for speechd-up
directly,
unless you use the voxin synthesizer and a voice distributed by oralux. Then
the setting is done in:
/opt/oralux/voxin/share/conf/voxin.ini
Cheers,
Didier
PS I have made available some scripts that I have written for Slint in:
https://github.com/DidierSpaier/slint-scripts
They can be used in other distributions, in some cases after adaptation.
I will add their descriptions in the README.

Hi all,
I unexpectedly had the use of a set of working eyes for a little while
yesterday; secure boot was turned off, and the key to bring up the boot
menu was found.
As a result of this, Windows got removed from this machine, and as the
subject states, Slint took it's place.
This machine runs like a dream, however, I did everything correctly and
the en-us voice used by default by my espeakup just doesn't want to go
the hell away!
As root, I did the following:
#speak-with speechd-up
::This in effect kills espeakup which is needed for the following
#espeakup default-voice=en-gb
::This, in theory should set the voice used to the brittish one.
#speak-with espeakup
::Does switch you back to espeakup.
#exit
If anyone knows what's going on here, please, please, help! My hearing
is already not the best in the world, I don't need the bad US voice to
make things worse.
