You are right. If he would use speakupconf he would have no difficulties. I have speakup working on a fully updated sonar linux system which is the same, basically, as a working arch system and all I had to do when trying to set speakup parameters the way I wanted them was to just adjust the volume, speed and whatever other settings I wanted the way I wanted them then do this: speakupconf save This will put a .speakup directory into his home folder and allow him to append the following to his .bashrc file: speakupconf load When he logs in, all the parameters will be set back the way he wants them. Hope this helps and happy New Year. -- Doug Smith: Special Agent S.W.A.T Spiritual Warfare and Advanced Technology Forever serving our LORD and SAVIOUR, JESUS CHRIST.
