Thanks for explaining why using -perm wasn't the right solution. I never run speakupconf as a regular user, so didn't notice the difference. Since I'm the only user on my computer, I just do a "speakupconf load" in /etc/rc.d/rc.local at boot up. I wonder why Slackware stuck with an old version of find? I know they have been reluctant to upgrade to BASH 4 because of some incompatibilities that they've encountered in testing, so maybe, it was something similar. anyway, thanks for the quick response.
