This page refers to some additional requirements for enabling FreePBX texttospeech module to work on Centos 6. The texttospeech module was an add-on module that has now been replaced by two modules released by Sangoma: tts and ttsengines. Therefore this Howto is being placed in the "Previous Howto" section for historical reference, but probably will no longer be useful.

wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/mpg123/mpg123/1.23.4/mpg123-1.23.4.tar.bz2
