Hi, does the Dectalk Software speech work when you
use the test program called say?
Fonix should have supplied you with a program
called say which you can enter gtext into and have it read back to
you.
If this works then we can determain the dectalk
software is installed properly and is working.
As far as Dectalk drivers not getting compiled this
sounds like a configuration error. I have never had to specify the dectalk flag
in order for configure to locate and compile my dectalk drivers.
Try dropping the dectalk flags that you passed to
configure and see if configure picks it up on it's own.
Hth.

DECTALK
Hi Tom et al,
I am trying to install gnome-speech with dectalk
on redhat advanced server 3.0.
I have a gnome-2.4 installatinon which I had
tarred from another system. I installed the dectalk32 drivers successfully,
but when I compile gnome-speech-0.3.0, with the --with-dectalk-dir option, the
autogen output says that the dectalk drivers were not built.
If I run tet-speech, I see a dectalk driver, but
if I try to select it, I get no driver selected.
I copied the dectalk driver .so files to /usr/lib
as you reccommended.
Any other thoughts?
Thanks, Don Raikes, Accessibility Specialist

Hi, I had the exact problem on Mandrake 9.2. I
fsolved the problem by copying the Dectalk libs from the Dectalk installer
into /usr/lib and the problem went away.

DECTALK
Hello all,
I am attempting to set up dec speech on a
system running Fedora, and am encountering a problem.
First, i ran the dec installer, and it seemed
to install with no problems. Then, I rebuilt and installed
Gnome-speech-0.2.7. When I configured it, I used the --prefix=/usr
and --sysconfdir=/etc options.
According to configure, both the dec and
festival drivers were built, and when I run test-speech, that fact appears
to be confirmed. The Festival server tests out okay; however, I get the
following output if I attempt to select the dec server:
1: OAFIID:GNOME_Speech_SynthesisDriver_Dectalk:proto0.2 2:
OAFIID:GNOME_Speech_SynthesisDriver_Festival:proto0.2
Select a server: 1 Atempting to activate
OAFIID:GNOME_Speech_SynthesisDriver_Dectalk:proto0.2. No server
selected.
Does anyone have any idea what might be going on?
Thanks,
--Al
