Hi, well the time has come yep the moment I have been waiting for. I have flite and festable installed on my system. The sound card works I tested it out by doing this Apt-get install saytime saydate aumix After setting the volume with aumix by the way is this the best tool to use for this function? I ran saytime and saydate sound came out of the sound card with no problem. Then I did a search for the speech synthesizer by doing this Apt-cache search speech I found the packages I wanted by using speakups review commands and the mark and cut and paste command like this Apt-get install then the paste command. It installed vestable Then I issued the command Apt-get install flite Flite was installed. Now I need to test these software synthesizers out and then switch speakup to one of them. First question how should I go about testing them to make sure they work. Second how do I switch speakup to one of them and witch one to choose. Thanks
