Voxin can be used in 64-bit land but it's a bit harder. I'm using voxin right now in 64-bit Ubuntu Karmic. Basically, you have to compile speech-dispatcher on a 32-bit machine that already has voxin installed. That creates the 32-bit binaries, which are /usr/lib/speech-dispatcher-modules/sd_ibmtts, and /usr/lib/libsd-audio.so.2.02. You have to copy these to the correct directories on your 64-bit machine, which is the same directory for sd_lib, but the /usr/lib32 directory for libsd-audio. You also have to make a symlink from libsd-audio.so and libsd-audio.so.2 to libsd-audio.so.2.0.2. Bill On Thu, Feb 11, 2010 at 3:26 AM, Berk?
