Oh that's right, they changed the permissions on the Speakup files, so only root can write them. This is the kind of thing that would have to be fixed within the Arch Linux package. So maybe file a bug against their speakup-utils package, asking if someone could create a speakupconf group and add udev rules to allow those /sys files to be written by members of that group. As it stands, they're only writable by root. -- Chris
