This is great. Thank you so much for making this work in VMWare
again. Most of the stuff I tried worked just like on my XO. Record
sort of works with the iSight on my iMac (the full preview is black,
but it still records video). Also, olpcgames seems confused about the

This is an awesome idea. A couple of people have contacted me to ask
how to add new voices to Speak. It would be great to make this

Have you actually tried the existing process for adding a voice?

more sense to have Speak save its state in a different way.

I suspect that the XO would not be able to handle a realistic 3D

the lack of GL for rendering.

I made a new activity called Speak. It is a talking face for the
