Software speech (Was): Re: Fedora Core 6 and speakup?

[Chris Norman]

I don't know about FC6.

But I'm using espeak which works with speakup (via speech-dispatcher and 
speechd-up), and orca.

I'm having a bit of a problem with it though; in that it's not pronouncing 
things properly. Letters like g don't pronounce at all, either alone or 
phinetically, and it pronounces my name (chris) as a hiss.

ANyone got any ideas on that? it's speak version 1.11a.

Cheers,

Chris Norman

Has FC6 been modified with Speakup support?

I'd love to get working with it soon.

Also, if any of you have any suggestions for the best software speech
combination i.e. synths that work with both speakup and Orca I'd really
appreciate hearing about them.

I don't particularly mind buying the synths either.  I don't have a com port
on this machine any more so the apollo isn't an option.

Thanks
