 |
|
I emerged ktts so I wouldn't feel so lonely, but it does not work.
I tracked the problem to festival: if I try to get festival to say anything I get | Code: | | Linux: can't open /dev/dsp |
What I know:
1) /dev/dsp is there, linked to /dev/sound/dsp.
2) Sound works fine for all other apps (except firefox, I have been thinking I should try aoss firefox, but havent yet because I just now emerged alsa-oss)
3) if I try aoss festival, it will give a segfault when it tries to talk
4) same results when run as root
5)festival.log shows no indication of a problem
