Re: [orca-list] some more issues with orca and speech-dispatcher.

hi herman,
I get the problem's source now.
the default module was flite and I have now changed it.
however I discover that sd does not start at system boot.  it is
giving some permission errors about a /var/run/speach-dispatcher/pid
file.
I did not get the point of rc.d because I don't have any such
directory in ubuntu.
I remember that this directory existed in fedora in /etc/rc.d but not here.
so please clearify.
regards,
Krishnakant.
