Hi,

Tried this and got package not found error.  I had already installed
Gnopernicus so would this make a difference?

You could try manually installing festival, if you haven't already-- installing gnopernicus on Ubuntu on my Powerbook doesn't seem to automatically install it for me.

However, I have to say I do get a lot of audio device conflicts on Ubuntu (Hoary), and gnopernicus seems to be one of the apps that just silently fails rather than giving me a console error when it can't output any speech. You might try killing and restarting the sound daemon (which is "esd" by default, IIRC) before you run gnopernicus, to see if that helps.
