Dear Samuel, I have not ~/.festivalrc nor modified /etc/festival.scm As for voices: 0% dpkg -l "*fest*" Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend |/ Err?=(none)/Reinst-required (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Architecture Description +++-==========================-=============-============-============================================= ii festival 1:2.5.0-4 amd64 General multi-lingual speech synthesis system un festival-freebsoft-utils <none> <none> (no description available) un festival-voice <none> <none> (no description available) ii festlex-ifd 2.0+debian0-4 all Italian support for Festival ii festvox-italp16k 2.0+debian0-4 all Italian female speaker for Festival ii festvox-itapc16k 2.0+debian0-4 all Italian male speaker for Festival un festvox-kallpc16k <none> <none> (no description available) un pidgin-festival <none> <none> (no description available) un speech-dispatcher-festival <none> <none> (no description available)
