lordievaderErr, I guess.14:54
lotuspsychjelordievader: there is an ubuntu distro specialized for blind users, maybe some usefull packages on there?14:55
lordievaderProblem is Ubuntu is usually behind with their packages.14:56
lotuspsychjethere has been an article about that14:57
lordievaderThis is the error I'm getting: Error: HTS_Model_load_pdf: Failed to load header of pdfs.14:58
lotuspsychjehttp://news.softpedia.com/news/will-i-have-the-latest-software-versions-in-ubuntu-with-snappy-485490.shtml14:58
lordievaderAh: "References to this error on the hts-users list suggest it's because the HTS API changed and that, where the old festival accepted 2.1 voices, the new version only accepts 2.1.1 voices."14:59
lordievaderlotuspsychje: Snappy is still futurework, right?14:59
