What kernel version are you up to? I can't use serial ports for speech anymore with my 2.6.34 kernel I'm not exactly sure when this was lost but I thought this was across the board with the current version of speakup and newer kernels. I would love to be able to use my Speakout once in a while. On Thu, Aug 05, 2010 at 12:47:12PM -0500, Kenny Hitt wrote: > Hi.
