Change Language Orca Speaks?

Thank you so much!!  That fixed the problem.  It sounds funny, though, so I
think I have some playing with the pitch and things to get the sound right,
but at least I can understand the voice now, LOL!

And also, I have installed Ubunto to the hard drive and am looking forward
to learning Linux.  This is the first time I have gotten a Linux Desktop to
install successfully, so I am very excited.

Thanks again!
Jerry

Hi Jerry, all

You can configure Orca's speech settings in the preferences dialog.

Press insert + space bar
or clic in the Preferences button in the Orca's main window.
Then choose Speech page and tab to a combo box that says Person. Then
use arrows to choose English voice.

Have you already installed Ubuntu into your computer? or are you running
from the live CD.

Hope this Help!

Regards,

Javier
