Re: keeping espeakup from starting at boot

Yeah, I'd rather not run a command if there is a config file I can set it in. I have been somewhat remis in my duties as a linux systems admin in having not taken the time to really learn about systemd. But if it requires you to run a command to configure services, then it's broken.

I looked for info on configuring services in systemd. I found a nice blog post about why /etc/default/ files aren't really needed in systemd. But the advice it gives doesn't seem to apply to espeakup. It says to take the default config file which would be somewhere like /lib/systemd/ and copy it to /etc/systemd/ and edit it there. But there is no espeackup config file anywhere in the systemd directories. I suspect that espeakup is relying on the backwards compatibility features of systemd. As someone who has ignored systemd as long as possible myself, I can't fault the espeakup developers for that.

Easier way than that, locate where espeakup has speakup_soft defined as synthesizer and edit that and replace speakup_soft with none.

On the machines used by the other people in my department, I need to keep espeakup from starting at boot time. We run ubuntu 15.10 so I think this is a systemd question.

Wouldn't you just go systemctl disable espeakup?
