Firstly, I can't find flite on extra devel.

Thirdly, the impression I am getting from the threads is that both flite and eSpeak need to be installed. Is this the case or can one work in place of the other.

Lastly, is eSpeak the same as eSpeak GUI Client or is it eSpeak - Extra Russian and Chinese Dictionaries?
Hope this helps.

As of the last couple versions it no longer uses flite or eSpeak. It's using it's own internal files. I've asked the developer to re-enable the option for eSpeak/flite, since it's more verbose. Hopefully that will re-appear as an option again.
flite is in the devel repositories, but it's CLI, so it won't show in the App Manager. You'd have to install it by hand with apt-get. Since flite is also busted on the N900 (it's a port from the N800, but audio out is slightly different), I'd advise skipping it.

I am really new to Linux and I am struggling to action some of these steps to activate voice navigation on my n900.
Firstly, I can't find flite on extra devel.
Secondly, could someone please give me a step by step guide on installing the voice navigation.
Thirdly, the impression I am getting from the threads is that both flite and eSpeak need to be installed. Is this the case or can one work in place of the other.
Lastly, is eSpeak the same as eSpeak GUI Client or is it eSpeak - Extra Russian and Chinese Dictionaries?
Thanks in advance.
