Hello, Just a follow up to my previous post. The problem is apparently related to the /etc/hosts file. During FC4 install, I chose to manually assign a hostname to my system. my machine's host name is Systemax. However, the only way so far that I have gotten gnome-speech to work is by removing references to systemax in the host file, so my /etc/hosts now contains the following line:
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain This resolves my Gnome-speech issues; However now, I keep seeing an error stating that my hosts file is incorrectly configured and that some gnome applications might not work properly. So, assuming I want my machine's hostname to be "systemax", how should I be setting up my /etc/hosts? Thanks in advance for any info, --Al ----- Original Message ----- From: "Al Puzzuoli" < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Gnome Accessibility List" < [email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, August 02, 2005 8:54 PM Subject: Problem with gnome-speech in FC4?
Hi everyone, I have recently done clean installs of FC4 on two separate systems and on both I am experiencing issues with Gnome-speech and Festival. Details are as follows: I know that Festival itself works because I can activate it using brltty and when I do so, I hear speech. I believe sound support is set up properly in gnome as well because I hear the test sound during firstboot. I have run tests using the version of Gnome-speech that installs with FC4 as well as whichever version is in CVS as of august 2. With the install version, test-speech can activate the Festival driver and seemingly runs all the tests; However it does so in complete silence. If I run Gnopernicus, I get the same result-- Gnopernicus runs and shows that speech is enabled but again in reality, there is no speech. I have also checked out gnome-speech from CVS and built it using "./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr" However after installing this version, things seem to get worse. Test-speech completely freezes when it attempts to activate the Festival driver and I am forced to break out with control+c. If anyone has thoughts on how to troubleshoot this further, they would be much appreciated.
