[orca-list] I think my installed Ubuntu and Orca is just plain unstable!

["Bob Tinney" <tinneyb charter net>]

Hi Herman,
I installed pythom speechd and it didn't make speech dispatcher available in 
the orca preferences.  When I rebooted, I lost all speech.  I then tried to 
install alsa and that didn't help.  I can still load and shut down Ubuntu, 
but no speech.
Any ideas anyone?  I am back in Windows XP until I get this one figured out, 
but I'd really like to get Ubuntu working so that I can eventually switch to 
Linux and dump windows altogether.

What Linux are you using? If it's Debian then do:
sudo apt-get install python-speechd
Restart Orca, go to preferences/speech and select SD as speech server
(not as synth). Click "OK", and you should have SD working.
