Tek_heretic, I got your thread closed, seems only fair I should be the one to resurrect it.

Install festival and kmouth

Enter this command for speaking text in the settings dialouge... /usr/bin/festival --tts (it worked for me, here is the KDE docs page link... http://docs.kde.org/stable/en/kdeacc...ig-dialog.html )

I really must read A Brief History of Time. I got it as a gift a few months back, but I've been a bit daunted by it, so I keep putting it off.
