All, I'm learning how to use gnome through orca and espeak on a ubuntu 7.04 system. I'd like to be able to read Chinese text, so I purchased ttsynth. I downloaded the .deb package and ran dpkg --install on it. I was prompted for my license key and got no errors. Files were installed under /opt/IBM/ibmtts. I'm not sure where to go from here to enable orca to use ttsynth. I'm not given a choice for ttsynth when I go to set orca preferences. The README talks about a ttsynth directory which I don't seem to have. Thanks for any help. John <<msg00005.htm>>Title: Re: [orca-list] TTSynth Is Here At Last

Hi, Mike: Mike Pedersen writes: > Hello Janina, does this now install and work correctly with the default > libraries installed on ubuntu? Yes, though you may need additional pieces. For instance, I don't believe gnome-speech-ibmtts is available from Ubuntu repositories by default. We will be providing rpm and deb packages for gnome-speech-ibmtts, speech-dispatcher, speakup-connector, etc., over the next few days via our web site, and eventually via our repositories at SpeakupModified.Org, but only a very few package files are there as of this moment. However, all the sources are available either from us or at default locations.
