-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: RIPEMD160 When echoing the name to /proc/synth_name, it has to be 'sftsyn' (without the tick marks). There's no DECPC or anything like that. Use sftsyn. Also, you have to be sure that speech-dispatcher is set up properly to use the synth you want. If I recall your previous messages, you're using DEC? then there's a file called dtk-generic.conf in I think, /user/local/etc/speech-dispatcher/modules (at least that's where it is on my box). Now if spd-say works, then that part should be straitened out for you. At one time or another, I've been able to use flite and DEC Talk successfully with Speech-Dispatcher.
