Hello there everyone,

I am having a problem when I reboot with Speakup and Debian 2.2r2 Potato.  I
try to hit the left shift key when I boot in to Speakup and I can'tseem to
be able to get it to speak with out a kernel panic.  I know what is causing
the kernel panic but I need to know is there a way I can automatically have
Speakup boot up automatically so that I don't have to do this shift key
thing every time I want to run Debian?

Hi there. I'm just now catching onto this thread so you're going to have
to bare with me on this grin. What synth are you using? Also are you using
lilo or Grub as your boot loader? If you are using lilo the shift key will
stop the boot process entirely. You then get a lilo prompt or a "boot."
Also are you using the stock kernel 2.2.19pre21-idepci or a newer kernel?

   If the problem persists, delete winblows and install linux

Sure is.
In the lilo.conf file put at the end of the configuration for the image.
append="speakup_synth=xxxx" for what ever synth your using.
For mine I would use speakup_synth=ltlk but your setup might be different.

OK ad this to your lilo.conf file after the initr line:
append="speakup_synth=synthname".
