Hi, try the spd-conf command and set up your speech-dispatcher. Another
change you need to make is in the /etc/speech-dispatcher/speechd.conf
for using pulse instead of alsa because intrepid is using pulse by
default. unless you make this change you will not be able to run
speech-dispatcher. I have not been able to remove pulse altogether. on
the other hand if you want to use only alsa install alsa-oss etc but
beware if speech-dispatcher automatically with alsa it will disable the
use of gnome-speech i.e. you will not have any output from orca unless
you start using speech-dispatcher. in other words it is at present a
case of 'either gnome-speech or speech-dispatcher'. Thanks, Aruni.

Hi,

edit /etc/defaults/speech-dispatcher so that speech dispatcher starts

as a service. then restart, afterwards, typing spd-say hello  should 
work.

Good luck.

Hello all,
I finally decided to go ahead and try Speech-dispatcher, given that 
it seems it might be able to solve the problems I'm having. I am 
using Ubuntu 8:10. I installed Speech-dispatcher and the 
python-speechd package using aptitude (apt-get etc...) and followed 
the rest of the instructions on the Orca wiki. Speech-dispatcher 
doesn't work. When I type "spd-say something" it says that SD wasn't

able to open. What could I do? I double-checked everything and I 
think I configured everything correctly... If I type 
"speech-dispatcher" on a terminal window, it tells me that it's

unable to start because it can't find a configuration file, which is

supposed to be in a subdirectory of 
/home/username/.speech-dispacher. The

file actually doesn't exist, so I don't know...
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Ignasi
