    Hi Carlos

    Does this need to be something for which there is a SuSE RPM or are you happy
    about doing a bit of compiling yourself?

    Since it could be done with a Sinclair ZX Spectrum, I guess that it is
    theoretically possible to create speech through the system speaker. It may well
    have been done. However, all of the TTS (Text to Speech) systems of which I am
    aware utilise the system sound server (Alsa, etc.)

    I am developing an accessible kiosk <http://www.tivis.net.au> which uses the
    Festival system for text-to-speech work.

    Please feel free to contact me off-list if you would like to discuss your
    application - I will see what I can do to help.

    Ciao
