I will check if I am doing something wrong at compiling time. If you want to have a look, let me know and I will upload what I've done so far. I don't mind credit, I want stuff that works. If you are interested in this, I can guide you on the modifications I've done to this. Or you can just run diff against the original source code.

P.S.: Is there an irc server/channel people around here hang out?
Found the problem. It was looking for the files under my home directory. That's where I compiled everything. I created /home/lupines/festival inside my Kindle and everything started to work. Now the problem is sound:

festival> (SayText "Hello")
Linux: can't open /dev/dsp
#<Utterance 0x40132b98>

This is the same problem as with flite. I'll have to look into this.
