I've gotten festival working for the most part but piping to /dev/speech doesn't work. A thread in the Gentoo forums seems to say that festival needs to be running in server mode. It is recommended to stop speechd and do: "festival --server" this fails for me with:
$ festival --server socket: bind failed Several people have had the same problem and asked advice on a fix but no one has offered a solution. Can someone point me in the right direction? A possible hint? saytime works but saydate just gives me a click in the speakers. (yes, saydate is emerged) -- Regards, Ernie 100% Microsoft and Intel free -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
