Has anybody managed to get gnome-speech with festival working?

[Jonathan Schemoul]

Hi,

In don't know if it can help, but the only thing I saw until now that
refused access to services was a firestarter (or iptables) badly
configured... Maybe adding the port of festival to the list of
accepted services can help ?

Cordially,
Jonathan Schemoul
