is speakup available for amd athelon?

[Jude DaShiell]

I've got one of these computers and cleaned windows me off it and replaced 
that with ms-dos 6.00 and would like to know if any of the list members 
know of any speakup versions for amd athelon computers I could download 
and install.

Pretty much any distro of Linux designed for x86 should work with Athlon 
processors. I fyou have a 64 bit Athlon then your options are a bit more 
limited, but if it's just the 32 bit version (which it is if it came with 
me) then you should be able to run any version of Linux designed to work on 
x86.

AMD is well supported. You don't need to do anything special, at least
not with the Speakup Modified installation, unless you have a 64 bit AMD
and want to install 64-bit Fedora. However, more things seem to work if
you install 32-bit, even on Opteron.

I'm running dual Opteron now with the Speakup Modified Fedora 3.

If Linux can't solve your computing problem, you need a different problem.
