I don't remember which OS I used with success.

Ok tomorrow is good. Thank you knudfl!-

Do you think that there is a chance Simon will work on Slack?

I tried downloading a different version of Simon for grins and giggles to see if an older version would install.

No dice:-

Ztcoracat · 10-25-2015, 09:47 PM

I found an older version of Simon-0.3.0-x86_64-1_slack.txz-
http://pkgs.org/slackware-14.1/slack...slack.txz.html

Here's a screenshot-

I'm s-=o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-happy!
All that work paid off.

Re #59 : "could not find opencv".

I did some testing with Fedora 22 - 64 : Easier ... no package building.

It appears that it's the "/usr/lib64/OpenCV/OpenCVConfig.cmake" script, that isn't found.
( No luck with any export command etc.)

I searched the net and found
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8...ration-process
See : "answered Mar 7 '14 at 1:52".
I did some editing : No result, `/usr/lib64/OpenCV/OpenCVConfig.cmake' not found.
* But the backup of the original script I made to "/home/knudfl/OpenCVConfig.cmake" was found :
-- The following external packages were located on your system.
-- This installation will have the extra features provided by these packages.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
* LibSampleRate - Resampling library
* KDE PIM Libs - KDE Libraries for PIM
* qaccessibilityclient - KDE client-side accessibility library
* Sphinxbase - Open source toolkit for speech recognition
* PocketSphinx - PocketSphinx is a small-footprint continuous speech recognition system
* OpenCV - OpenCV (Open Source Computer Vision) is a library of programming functions for real time computer vision

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- Congratulations! All external packages have been found.

Don't know why cmake looks in /home/<name>/ for a *Config.cmake file.
( The Simon-0.4.1 directory is /home/knudfl/tmp/simon-0.4.1/.)

Wonder why it could not be found but your script was found.
I find that bizarre-

I had trouble understanding the error and was banging my head against the wall.
There wasn't any clue how to adjust the cmake module so that cmake can find it.
Least none that I found.

Installing an older version of Simon did the trick.
Simon 0.4.1 did not want to install but I had success with simon 0.3.0-x86_64-1-slack.txz.

Is Simon now installed on FC 22 that your running?

Re #65.

Simon runs, and opens the GUI : Fedora 22 - 64.

Code:

**** Build completed ****

The executable file "simon" is now ready and has been installed.

Issue "simon" to start it.

I had to edit $HOME/OpenCVConfig.cmake to the actual OpenCV path`s.
The original script uses "current dir" for LIB and INCLUDES.

The compressed edited script is attached. Rename to OpenCVConfig.cmake.gz and uncompress.

COOL knudfl!

I could use that file for my Centos box.
Thanks!

Thank you for staying with me and teaching me things.

debguy · 10-26-2015, 01:55 PM

sorry. you know if you get it working (was it worth not buying a used iphone)?

dragon speak / ms hackers are going to bribe a pgp key holder to make changes to "latest release" to force upgrades that break linux / use of software. (while also stealing whatever code was donated)

that is how things have been running in the linux has been since microsoft/apple had to contend with linux popularity and recognition as "stable": attacking pgp uploads

p.s. dragon speak was first began on USA gov code that was, after years, expired and release public domain

HOMEWORK: find the related lawsuit and PD code. you can't. the "old guard" controls more than you think online

Here's some screenshots of the program-

The Welcome screen, Grammer, Wordlist and Training.

Dictionaries are added in the Vocabulary section.
In the training section you drag the word in the list on the left into the box on the right and click begin training and you record the word over and over until Simon tells you that it's been configured correctly.

Sometimes when I'm recording Simon will tell me:

Code:

Simon detected that the difference between recorded speech and the background noise is too low.

Back to the handbook and more learning.

I've started composing a Tutorial on how to install Simon on Slackware, Linux Mint and Fedora.

Most likely it will take a few weeks because I have to include all of the details.-

Anyone know how I'd post a Tutorial?

Would I just post a regular thread and our Owner of LQ or one of our Team Staff would post it in the Tutorial section?

knudfl · 10-28-2015, 02:51 AM

Re #21 : " Anyone know how I'd post a Tutorial ? "

Suggest : A blog http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/blog/ here at LQ.

TobiSGD · 10-28-2015, 04:55 AM

Either post your tutorial on your personal blog, as knudfl suggested, or register for the LQ Wiki and post it there.

Thanks-

I'll register for the LQ Wiki-

I kept to my word.
Here's the WiKi page for Installing Simon.-
