Hello, I'm having trouble getting emacspeak to talk on ubuntu 7.04. Using the orca interface, and after installing a couple of extra packages, I've been able to run through the sequence of make config, make emacspeak, and make install without errors. I logon through orca, change to another console with control alt f-2 and logon to what I assume is a text based console. I invoke emacspeak with: Sudo emacspeak -e I provide my password. I get a beep at this point, but ce c-s s speaks to me saying espeak. I have very little of the wonderful functionality I was used to in previous emacspeaks. C-e c-l will read the current line, but in dired when I move up and down with "n" and "p", I don't get any speech. Is this an espeak problem? Does this have something to do with the fact that ubuntu's run levels are all gui enabled? I'm working from a recent svn check out of emacspeak-26. I'm apparently using version 21.4 of emacs. Thanks for any help.
