So, a while back, I remember trying, through gedit to manually by hand
edit the
/etc/speech-dispatcher/speechd.conf
file, and uncommenting some of the speech modules, then changing the
default=espeak to which ever module I wanted to use.
Obviously, I made sure I first had the TTS engine installed.
I think I tried this with Festival, but don't quote me.
Anyway, my point is, I then restarted Speech-Dispatcher's service, all
be it maybe not correctly, and loe and behold, I epicly broke Orca. I
then had entirely no speech at all.
Even after logging out and back in, nothing worked.
So, yeah. Whoops? Major! Whoops!
So, before I went middle mucking around with that file, and yes, I did
copy it elseware, so I do have a backup, I was just curious if it was
safe to uncomment some of those synths in the file, or am I still likely
to really break Orca if I do this. I'd rather check with you all that're
way more experienced users than I currently am before I go doing
something which'll prove to be incredibly stupid! Especially since I
have a working system which has been configured to the point where I'm
thoroughly enjoying it.
FYI, I'm using Ubuntu 18.04.
Chris.
