12.04 orca uses speech-dispatcher and festival is not available unless you start it as a service. After installing festival packages (speed-dispatcher-festival included) many steps must be done to have festival running with orca:
sudo install /usr/share/doc/festival/examples/festival.init /etc/init.d/festival sudo update-rc.d festival defaults sudo gedit /etc/default/festival * Add the line RUN_FESTIVAL=yes sudo /etc/init.d/festival start * Or restart the computer Next time you start orca you could select festival as voice engine. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/692996 Title: No /etc/init.d script To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/festival/+bug/692996/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
