Re: no speech out of gnopernicus except welcome

[Janina Sajka <janina afb net>]

Do rm rf .gconf

and look for the speech servers for Gnopernicus somewhere under /usr. I'm sorry, I don't have an installation on my new system yet to point to these directly for you,
but there will be a *Server* file for each supported speech system there. You need to delete these and restart gnome and then gnopernicus.
