Hi, when I echo the software synthasizer command to synth_name like this Echo sftsyn > synth_name It informs me that it is loaded the module and still speaks from the accent. Am I correct that this means the module is not there. I then do the following to see what the new synthasizer name is More synth_name it shows that the synth was still set to anctsa I then just for kicsk did the following Echo decpc > synth_name Speech stop tell I set it back to the accent again. So in other words this device is there. Then to test my assumption I did the following. Echo jim > synth_name It reported that it was loading the jim module witch I know does not exist and still spoak from the accent so I then did the following More synth_name It reported acntsa So I believe I can safely say I do not have the module and it is not in my kernel. Now I have to figure out how to get it with out braking what is already working.
