Hi, I have a rather dumb question. Why is speakupconf necessary? If the point is to make saving and loading of settings easier, why not just use /etc/rc.local? It should always run at boot and requires no extra files or directories. You have to run it as root but my understanding is that only root can modify Speakup parameters anyway. For example, I always set my rate and volume this way. I add a beep at the end with the beep package in Debian so I know when I'm at a login prompt. If Speakup times out, all I have to do is rerun /etc/rc.local. Is there something that I'm missing here? Is there some obvious advantage to speakupconf that I don't know about? I always created a script to manage voice settings since I started using Speakup in 2000.
