Re: gnopernicus and free tts



hi pete,
I hope I have the gnome speech installed, or otherwise it will be hunting for a thousand other dependencies. do versions numbers matter? can I just pick the latest and it will work? If I have gnome speech installed, how do I get it to start working? how do I load the driver. is test speech another program that comes with gnome speech?

Hi Cody,

How can I get gnopernicus to workwith free tts without going threw the hastle of installing all this junk for festival? I just need to get it to talk, also, When ever I bring up the run application box, I type in gnopernicus, but I hear no speech, and I see no windows pop up. I see nothing down in my task bar. I run Linux xp. I know it has gnopernicus cause I have seen it on here and brought it up. thanks

Yes, you don't need Festival if you have another TTS engine installed that has a gnome-speech driver. If you have gnome-speech installed, you should have the program 'test-speech'. Use this to get a list of your installed text-to-speech engines. If you don't see it with test-speech, Gnopernicus won't see it either.

gnome-speech comes with drivers for FreeTTS. Once you have FreeTTS installed, you can use the gnome-speech driver for it. Best to install FreeTTS first, then build gnome-speech (and tell it where to find FreeTTS on your system).
