I have never patched or compiled the kernel before and I did read the installation docs before running the patch prgram. In the installation documenation it says first to patch speakup by typing patch -p0 <speakup-0.08-patch. After I typed in that line it gave me an error saying the -p is invalid and also said can't find file to patch at input line 4. And then t asks me to enter a file to patch and I typed in speakup-0.08-patch and it gave me a hunk #1 ailed at 8961 and I aborted after that. I'm using Mandrake-linux 7.0 kernel 2.3.14 on a p133, 96mb of ram , 3.2bg hard drive 1mb of video ram and a soundblaster 16.

Speakup doesn't work with 2.3 kernels yet, 2.2 are the highest it will operate with. When you apply this patch, be sure to type the command exactly as displayed, and make sure you are in the /usr/src directory.
