Dear friends, I installed speakupmodified fedora core 3 on my PC and planning to enable speakup using software synth. As per the instructions in the howto I downloaded speech dispatcher 0.6. After un taring I issued the command ./configure Hear it gave the message configured with out support of flite, ALSA and NAS. Now my questions are: 1. How to get the support of ALSA and flite? 2. I found that ALSA are found in /usr/include. Do I need to download any ALSA related components to enable ALSA support? Appreciating your help. Hope to hear from you.
