[Paparazzi-devel] RE: Voice Not Working in GCS w/ Hardy

[Christophe De Wagter]

First find and check the speech-dispatcher settings and logfile

 

find / -name speech.conf

find / -name speech-dispatcher.log

 

Probably the logfile contains information about your problem (like: can not open output module) which in turn probably means you have no flite or festival installed...

 

Anyway you need to get the following command to work:

 

spd-say "Hello world"

 

for me the following helped:

 

apt-get install festival

alsaconf

 

Success,

 

Christophe

Hi,

are you sure the server is running ? Try

sudo /etc/init.d/speech-dispatcher restart

on my Hardy box, I have to edit the /etc/default/speech-dispatcher file and replace a "no" by a "yes", and then start the daemon

--Pascal
