List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 11 Mar 2008 11:06:23 -0000 Hello, I've been working on installing speakup on Ubuntu 7.10. I got the kernel sources, patched it with speakup, did the usual make, make modules_install and make install etc. For some reason, the kernel compilation in Ubuntu differs from that in OpenSuSE so I also had to create an initrd and add the grub entry using grub-install. When I boot I get a kernel panic. I know I'm not being very specific there however my question is: Has any one manually installed speakup in to the Ubuntu 2.6.22.9 kernel? Any suggestions or tips? Tonight if I get time I'll download the 2.6.23 kernel from kernel.org. Oh, while I'm at it, are the 2.6.24 or 2.6.25 kernels supported yet? Thanks Darragh Blog at www.digitaldarragh.com
