Thanks Lee. There are two different notations in the Wiki about
starting the server. One says "festival_server &" The other says
"festival --server &"
I was using the first. When I used the second version, it works fine.
Sorry for the trouble.
Thanks,

Lee,
Was the binary compiled with Festival? Festival works, but unable to get
Xastir speech to produce anything.

Duffy,
Yes it was. If you click Help --> About, you can see it among other
items that were compiled in. With Festival, you have to start the
server before starting Xastir. Entering 'festival --server&' at the
command prompt (without the quotes) will do it. Then via File -->
Configure --> Speech you can test it with the test button. I have the
new binary installed in Kubuntu, and text to speech works.
There's a blurb about using Festival in the HowTo for installing from
source. I'll plan to add it to the HowTo for the binary.
Regards,
