Subject: Re: OT: Emacspeak and Fedora Hi You'd probably be better off asking this on the emacspeak list, see http://www.cs.vassar.edu/~priestdo/emacspeak/ I expect that you need to compile the speech server for the appropriate synth, these can be found in /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/emacspeak/servers (or similar), and you will then also need to configure emacspeak to use that server, probably by setting the DTK_PROGRAM environment variable. I know this is rather vague but the specifics vary depending on the distro and the choice of server, in some cases you have to edit the server makefiles, etc. Its probably best looking at the emacspeak list archives and then asking on there if you need further advice.
