Hi there, if the blt won't work for you then you're limitted to getting
a supported synth if you don't own any of the supported synths at the
moment, believe you can get the list of supported synths by consulting
the speakup faq, there's a link to the faq right on the speakup web
site's front page http://www.linux-speakup.org. I'm lazy so I don't want
to list them here. However, if you have problems finding a list of
supported synths write and I'd be happy to dig the stuff up. Hth and
good luck!

you don't have the original kernel source in the /usr/src/linux dir.
or you are compiling with a user with restricted access to that directory.

Chris,
Aha, this is slackware 9.0, right?
I had the same problem, I wonder why they stopped putting the kernel
source on the cd.
You simply need to download this package using wget like this.
wget
ftp://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/slackware/slackware-9.0/slackware/k/kernel-source-2.4.20-noarch5.tgz
then type installpkg kernel-source-2.4.20-noarch5.tgz and try again.
Hope this helps.

Oops, looking again at your error, I'm not sure my answer is correct.
Doing that helped me with a similar error message, but I'm not sure it's
the same. Worth trying though.
I don't know if you need root privilages to access that file, if all
else fails try as root if you're not already.

Because there wasn't enough space supposedly. Slackware has been able to
install from one CD for some time, but I think that is going to have to
change. Each version has to exclude more and more. Maybe, they'll
eventually have a DVD option for those with DVD ROM drives.

Hello
make sure you have the directory /usr/src/linux
with the 2.4.20 kernel sources in it.
you can downloadthem at
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernels/v2.4/linux-2.4.20.tar.gz
You will need to link the linux-2.4.20 directory to linux, or if you are
lazy like me, you can just rename it.
Then try your configure script again and let us know.
Sincerely,
Patrick

Jannet,
No, I have yet to get it working. Apparently, the problem is that i don't
have the source for the kernel. i went up to ftp.us.kernel.org, and did
an ls -1 command, but can't find anything... probably just because I
don't seem to follow the directory structure on that particular server.
Are you in the US? Is there a way that maybe i could call you and let you
assist me that way instead of through e-mail as that is a bit difficult me
going from console to console trying to install the drivers plus read what
you are saying plus try to find out exactly what it is I'm doing.
Thanks.
Chris.

Just go to:
http://www.kernel.org
You should quickly find the latest stable kernel (I assume that's still
2.4.20? 2.6 still seems to have some issues, or am I wrong about that?)

Current is 2.4.22, but you also want to take care to match your distro.
It's just easier that way.

Let's start with what distribution of linux you're using. What does:
uname -a
give you?

Well, OK. But you were saying you couldn't figure out the directory
structure at kernels.org. As I just wrote you in another message, it's
important that you match the sources you install against the kernel
you're actually running. You can't say to the ALSA compiler, here's some
data for you to use without taking care to ensure that it's the data
that matches what you're actually using.
Don't beg for trouble.

OK, let me try and be nice.
It matters because you want to get the source that matches the kernel
you're using. Otherwise, ALSA isn't going to work for you. Of course,
you could always just recompile the kernel, but I didn't think that was
what you wanted to do.
I have no idea of how things are done in Slack, but if there's a
standard methodology for obtaining packages, you most certainly want to
follow that methodology especially if you're just learning how to do
things. To stray is to ask for trouble and frustration. In fact, it
might almost be like begging for it.
For better or for worse, the distros do things a bit differently, i.e.
your choices to have consequences.

OK, then I presume he follows Slack procedure to get the sources? I
don't know Slack so can't help with that.

You have to make sure that the version-specific modules have been
selected and that the source of the kernel you wish to use coensides
with the version you wish to use.
such as linux ->linux-2.4.22
