I see that speech-dispatcher is automatically started by the /etc/init.d/speech-dispatcher script, but my current situation is: I am running a killall for both speech-dispatcher and speechd-up in rc.local before envoking both with sleep statements inbetween from rc.local. I get to a login prompt without speech and once signed on, I can killall speechd-up and run it again by hand and then have speech. Adding the killall speechd-up and the re-execution after a sleep statement into rc.local does not work. Any ideas? TIA, Willem ps. this is a 600 MHZ old Athlon processor. -- This message is subject to the CSIR's copyright terms and conditions, e-mail legal notice, and implemented Open Document Format (ODF) standard.
