everything installed but no speech



Hi list,

I have installed gnome 2.0.6 on this Slackware 8.1 distribution
with only minor difficulties. I have also installed festival
successfully, and when running "festival --server" in one console
and "festival_client" in another, they connect and I can produce
speech okay. I also have gnome-speech, gnome-mag, and gnopernicus
installed, but am getting no speech when I run startx.

The XF86 log file is not informative, and when I redirect startx
output to a file and examine it after starting X and stopping it,
I get a few lines that I am not sure how to interpret.
It is not clear to me if they suggest a problem or result from a
normal shutdown.

Thomas Ward seems to have been having problems much like the ones
I am experiencing, but I cannot find any reference that suggests
he has solved them.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I  get similar results when I run gnopernicus before
gnome-session in my xinitrc file or when the two are reversed.

Where can I look for more information?

Chuck
