Re: [g-a-devel] Festival will not work with gnome-speech 0.3.6.

["Zsolnai Laszlo" <laszlo zsolnai axelero hu>]

Hello,

Copy the following line in your etc/festival.scm file:
(set! server_access_list '("127.0.0.1" "localhost" "localhost\\.localdomain" 
"Spot"))

Comment out your original setting of server_access_list in this file.
Hopefully this will work without the change of your etc/hosts.

Best regards,

Laszlo
