Lorenzo, I'm not sure what would be wrong. Can you test festival independent of speakup? Can you boot using external synth and then run festival from the command line and make it speak properly? Did the speakup patches apply with no errors? Try using festival_server instead of the --server flag. Owen mentioned that it's different. I think you can tweak the configuration settings using that script. -- Doug Lorenzo wrote: >I need a little help with this festival mod.
