	Mostly because speakupconf doesn't appear to load specified 
configuration files, as far as I can tell from the man page.

	I don't worry, and can certainly live with that.  When I'm doing 
mail, I'm usually not doing anything else, except maybe coppying a URL 
or two to another console for later visiting.  I still have no 
particular need to use Orca as yet.  It's still clunky, even on a 24G 
quad-core system with 3Gs/sec SATA hard drives. <shrugs> Told those guys 
months ago that you don't chase the dog with a pooper-scooper when 
creating an accessibility standard in Linux and got drummed out of the 
list.  I'll stay with NVDA and windows when I need a GUI.
