Can someone help with ALSA? I'm trying to install speech dispatcher and speech-dup. I have festival installed, but when I issue the command for saying "Hello, hello", I don't get any sound. I have a on-board Realtek (ac97) sound chip, and from what I can tell with alsamixer, everything is turned up to max. Also, I am reeeeeally anxious to run Orca. Do I have to perform a reformat/reinstall when I upgrade to 6, or can I just upgrade the packages? Any help or answers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Guy P.S. I'm definitely interested in getting a viavoice RPM. How much does it cost and where can I get it superquick?
