This is not a blow against Kirk and any of the developers of Speakup, but I just wanted to ask for the reason of dropping the support for kernels lower than 2.2.18 for Speakup0.10. The truth is that none of the distributions that I know come default with 2.2.18, or higher, kernels. Being in Europe, it becomes practically impossible to download 10MB or more of a new kernel in order to just install Speakup. What was so special about 2.2.18 that Speakup0.10 would lack in previous versions of the kernel?
