Ubuntu does not come with one, no. But I know there is one that comes with the Xandros Linux OS that ships with the EeePC. I'm using it right now! It's called VoiceCommand.. But after some googling, it doesn't look like anyone other than EeePC users are using it.
You can install Dragon Naturally Speaking and use it under wine, but no no voice commands.
It is sad to see Linux lag so far behind on this, although I acknowledge the technical difficulties of voice recognition.
There are two mistakes one can make along the road to truth...not going all the way, and not starting.

You can try gnome-voice-control though, I've never used it:
Code:sudo apt-get install gnome-voice-control
Don't try to make something "fast" until you are able to quantify "slow".
I just did that, lol .The problem is I can't start it.If I type:
"gnome-voice-control" it "bash: gnome-voice-control: command not found"
Where is my package?How can I start it?I couldn't find it under "Applications" or "System"....
Try:
If nothing comes back it could be a panel applet. Try right clicking on the panel and click Add To Panel and see if you can find it.Code:dpkg -L gnome-voice-control | grep bin/
Don't try to make something "fast" until you are able to quantify "slow".
I agree I was very impressed with this program, it really does help when opening the terminal, without going through all the menu's. But when i try to open my chosen browser or mail client (Firefox, and Thunderbird), it opens programs which are default to it, such as Epiphany and Evolution, although it recognizes the command 'run mail' and opens 'Evolution' instead, Thunderbird is chosen as my default system mail client.
Since it recognizes the mail and browser commands, could it be configured to open my chosen applications? (Firefox, Thunderbird), any one know?.
