Unfortunately IBM no longer offers ViaVoice TTS (Text to Speech)
for Linux as a download, and the linux development of ViaVoice
is stopped, the product is pretty much dead (on linux). This is
a shame because ViaVoice TTS sounds really nice.

The festival home page is here:
http://www.cstr.ed.ac.uk/projects/festival/

And the download page is here:
http://festvox.org/packed/festival/1.4.3/

There are many other places to find festival too, like at CMU.
For american english you can get a working synth with just these
five files:
