Hi,

 

You need to edit the file /etc/ld.so.conf and add the line

 

/opt/swift/lib

Then type sudo ldconfig

 

This will make the swift voice show up in the Orca speech synthesizers combo box.

 

Note you should register the voice first by typing swift --reg-voice because if not registered the voice will repeat a long message about registering it before everything Orca sends to it and it's unusable.

Good evening,

 

Trying to get a demo version of the Cepstral Swift Duncan to work in Orca on Ubuntu 8.04.  I followed the steps below, but Swift isn't showing up in Orca's Speech tab.  Am I missing something?

 

1. Downloaded voice from Cepstral.

2. Unpacked tarball.

3. Ran install.sh as sudo

4. Tested with "padsp swift hello", working.

5. Rane "sudo apt-get install gnome-speech-swift".

6. Tried restarting Ubuntu.

 

I still have no option for Cepstral or Swift in Orca.

 

Thanks,

Everett
