Of course, the PCI subsystem may hnot load in time... Though iirc, you said you had modularized Speakup.

Subject: Re: speakup serial ports Hi Steve, Yes. I have a box with one serial port on the motherboard, and another=20 on a PCI card. The first one appears as ttyS0 and has a braille display=20 on it, and the other one appears as ttyS4, where I would like to put a=20 synthesizer. Some software only allows ports 0 to 3, the first four=20 ports, and I cannot recall whether that is the case with speakup.
