Hi, I have flite compiled and speech-dispatcher doing its test and talking. I seem to have speechd_up compiled and installed correctly, but after having created /dev/softsynth with major 10 and minor first 26 and then after deleting the first one, 36, After starting speechd_up -L/var/log/speech.log I get this: [Tue Aug 10 13:33:48 2004] speechd: Speechd-speakup starts! [Tue Aug 10 13:33:48 2004] speechd: ERROR! Unable to open soft synth device (/dev/softsynth) I have chmod 777 /dev/softsynth although it belongs to root and i was running everything as root. What am i doing wrong here? TIA Willem
