Hey Tomas, I'm running Ubuntu version 7.04.

Well, this will involve a little bit of hacking. The preferred solution would be to wait for backport packages for Ubuntu 7.04. I've heard that
Luke Yelavich planned to make those available soon.

If you don't want to wait, however, I'd suggest installing the Ubuntu package for Speech Dispatcher 0.6.1. This package includes the startup scripts, which should work also with Speech Dispatcher 0.6.2. You will just need to modify the startup script /etc/init.d/speech-dispatcher to run the newer (compiled) version of Speech Dispatcher. This should involve changing the path to the binary from /usr/bin/speech-dispatcher to /usr/local/bin/speech-dispatcher or so, depending where your compiled binary for 0.6.2 resides.

Then you can test whether it worked out by invoking:

/etc/init.d/speech-dispatcher restart

and trying whether Speech Dispatcher speaks:

spd-say hello

Please note that I have never tried this and I'm not a Ubuntu user. I believe it should help, but you'll be the first one trying it this way...

Let me know if you have any problems.

Best regards

Tomas
