Thanks Bob,

Installing this package for freetts got the install to work, sound is still missing, but I think I can work thru that.

Ooopppsss, I stand corrected !! There does seem to be a pre-built ubuntu package for this;

Although I cannot vouch for where it is a preperly built package...... I will assume it is good to go !!

    apt is telling you that it cannot find freetts, a dependency of
    altos , and that's because there isn't a prebuilt *buntu package.
    This I know because:

    I search launchpad.net <http://launchpad.net> for such *buntu
    questions. Here's the relevant info;

    I have had no problems using the pre-built altos packages on
    ubuntu 10.10 btw, so an audio problem should be related to not
    having freetts installed. I have freetts installed, so I am pretty
    sure I did it by either using deb-buildpackage on the files you
    will find either at git.gag.com <http://git.gag.com> OR at the
    link above. (I might have also found a debian pre-built package
    (which should work because it is a java package...)

    I also have had no problems (to date) building the stuff from
    source, including the mac and microsoft platform stuff on the
    ubuntu box. Again I have freetts (and the other deps) installed.

    P.S... Join us on the irc, if you can, and I can paste up the
    relevant deb-packagebuild stuff if that will help. (It's not at
    all obvious !)

        I just got the Telemetrum starter kit from Apogee and now
        trying to get it to run. I am unclear on how/where to install
        the Linux packages. I am running Kunbutu 10.10. I tried the
        Debian install, but got an errors:

        demigod@Behemoth:~$ sudo apt-get install altos

        Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
        requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
        distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
        or been moved out of Incoming.
        The following information may help to resolve the situation:

        The following packages have unmet dependencies:
         altos : Depends: freetts but it is not installable
        E: Broken packages

        So I got
        http://www.altusmetrum.org/AltOS/releases/0.9/Altos-Linux-0.9.tar.bz2

        I unpacked and left in my home directory, limited luck, the
        moved it to root.
        ao-list does not work. Sound does not work. I get limited and
        unreliable connectivity between TeleMetrum and TeleDongle.

        I am use to apt-get and installing from source, ./configure,
        make make install. But this install has me baffled.

        Thanks
