I installed festival's deb and can SayText "hello" but nothing comes out the
speakers. A while back Seth even helped me and we could never get it up and
running. I think it's not pointing to the right irq or i/o port. Seth had
it reading Edger Allen Poe's "The Raven". It was great. He also had it
reading web pages. If you have any suggestion on how to get the sound for
festival configured it would be great. You could have it read warning to
you. How about reading your log files? I just wish festival had a female
voice like the computer on Star Trek.
