Hi, I am really using 2.6.18 kernel, miss typed the number. If I rebuild
the speakup kernel image package the way shane built it what is the command
he uses to build the sources into a binary and do I need to do the make
config or will makekpkg do this automatically? Will it make a different
package for modules and kernel or just one as I want my kernel in one
package not two? I know I need to recompile the kernel to change that
option but is there a way speakup could be coded where that option would not
have an effect on software synthisizers like flite? Does the debian kernel
that shane built have software synthisizer support?
