-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Be sure you have the package festival-freebsoft-utils installed. It is the link that ties speech-dispatcher to festival. Then you have to specify your localhost by one name or another as authorized to access the festival server. Only when all that happens can speech-dispatcher communicate with festival. And make sure you have a directory called /var/log/speech-dispatcher in which all your logs will be placed. Those logs are very valuable sources of information when something goes wrong.
