Could the Speakup patch be left out for the kernel types it does not build
on?
As far as I know we really don't have any way of testing on systems that
aren't i386 or amd64. So there's not any real way of knowing if Speakup
works on other architectures.

All,

because of this bug [1], gentoo linux will be dropping support for speakup
in its official kernels starting at 2.6.22.

[1] http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=177794

Is there any possibility at all that speakup could be moved into user space
as the bug suggests?  I feel that if we can go into user space this will b a
better approach.

Thanks,
