Description David Sullivan 2011-09-24 00:48:37 CEST

I have Mageia 1 installed in KDE and I can't add speakers in jovie.

I installed festival and I typed this in a console:

echo "It's such a beautiful day! Why are you in front of the computer?" |
festival --tts

It gave me a nice voice.

Still no speakers in jovie to add.

have you read the instruction of urpmi ?

"In order to use jovie you first need to configure the speed-dispatcher daemon
using spd-conf (this binary is provided by python-speechd)
If you're using the default mageia sound configuration (pulseaudio per default)
you should configure speed-dispatcher using spd-conf this way:
- create a user configuration
- default module output is espeak
- select your default language
- default audio output method needs to be pulse & not alsa
- default port needs to be 6560
Regards,

"

Yep the documentation is available in the urpmi.readme for jovie.
