Orca and Speech Dispatcher

[Mírian Bruckschen]

Hi all,

I'm trying to make Orca work with Speech Dispatcher and eSpeak, and
having some issues. Until now, it simply refused to show Speech
Dispatcher as an alternative for "Speech system".

I followed the instructions at
<http://live.gnome.org/Orca/SpeechDispatche>, but still no success.

spd-say works fine, and already uses the correct eSpeak portuguese
voice, not the default one of flite. speech-dispatcher's version
(--version) is 0.6.2, compiled by hand -- and I guess that can be the
problem, since my distro -Xubuntu, in its Edgy Eft version- likes
packages rather than that. I also tried to "apt-get install" the
official ubuntu package, but its version for Edgy is 0.6.1, and I know
I need 0.6.2 or later.

Is there anything else I could try to solve it? Have anybody had the
same problem?

Thanks for your attention,
