Re: problem with orca running

[Cody Hurst <cdog2005 gmail com>]

hi will,

  I did this
make uninstall
make clean
then reinstalled with:
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make install

This time when I did a "orca-setup" I got a lot of stuff then when I
typed orca at the prompt afterwards, I got an error saying it couldn't
find a speech driver?

I am running Fedora Core 3
