I'll have to try the latest speakup out of guit Yes, you can change synths by echoing the name to /sys/module/speakup/parameters/synth Echoing a value of none will stop speech. You also need to kill speechd-up before changing synths. This applies to espeakup too. You probably don't have speech after changing synth from none to soft, because your old daemon is running. It's reading from a file descriptor which became invalid as soon as you changed synth from soft to none. That's just a wild guess on my part. -- Chris
