Re: [orca-list] Orca is silent after updating Gnome-Speech

[Willie Walker <William Walker Sun COM>]

Hi Hermann:

Two quick things to check (in addition to stuff you can find under the 
"Troubleshooting" section of http://live.gnome.org/Orca/GnomeSpeech):

1) Does 'espeak' work?  If not, eSpeak is broken.

2) Does test-speech work?  If not, the gnome-speech driver for eSpeak 
isn't working and we'll need to figure out what went wrong with the 
build/install (i.e., did you use --prefix=/usr).
