Talk:KTTS

In kde-4.4, kttsd does not work. When I open system settings, it shows only 3 tabs and the line that says that kttsd is not running.

I tick the box to start it, but the apply button never alights to accept the change. I run it from the command line instead, but nothing happens.

I have also run kttsmngr and it docks into the system tray, but since kttsd is not running/never runs, it cannot do anything, which can be seen when one clicks configure here.

When I open system settings and try to select a talker, none are shown, although I have festival and a number of voices installed. Both festival and espeak work fine from the command line, but in kdeaccessibility, nothing works.

I should say that a number of other users have also reported this problem and the identical symptoms. We are all using fedora kde-4.4.

KTTS and KDE 4.4

Just posted a message on fedora's maillist, but it seems that you already have voices installed which I thought was the issue for you. I reinstalled KTTS on KDE SC 4.4 (I'm using Chakra kdemod 4.4) and it worked as it had before in KDE SC 4.3. All of the tabs are still there and it is the same as in the screenshots with KDE SC 4.3. I'm not sure what is wrong for you, but it is most likely a fedora related issue.
