Hey there Tomas and other listers, this is really weird. I modified the init.d script to point to the newly compiled speech-dispatcher, and on bootup, I receive the error message "can't create pid in /var/run/speech-dispatcher". When I launch from the command ($sudo speech-dispatcher), this error does not occur. Any ideas? Again, thanks much in advance for all the help.
