Hi, Indeed the service doesn't work. But you can run speech-dispatcher as user, it will use /etc/speech-dispatcher/speechd.conf. I'm trying packaging speechd-up, I guess it can work without the service (daemon). Normally, when you run spd as user, it creates a .speech-dispatcher to write logs and pid, but no conf is needed, except this in /etc/speech-dispatcher.
