Re: Soundsworks but Gnopernicus doesn't speak



Hi Darragh:

First, I think you'll need to turn off sound events, because they can conflict with speech on some systems.

gconftool-2 -s -t bool /desktop/gnome/sound/event_sounds false

Then make sure esd is on:

gconftool-2 -s -t bool /desktop/gnome/sound/enable_esd true

There should be a program called 'test-speech' installed, which you can use to test the text-to-speech services. You should have a 'festival' driver. If it doesn't seem to be working, make sure you have festival installed.

regards

Bill

Just to follow that last message, I ran Gnopernicus from a shell and it said

Hello,
I've now got sound working by pure chance.  I started gnopernicus and
although I can hear a lot of sound vents gnopernicus hasn't started speaking
yet.

Any ideas why this could be happening? it did ask me if I wanted to enable
the accessibility features of gnome but I haven't had any other messages
good or bad which would explain it.

Any ideas?

Darragh
