Hi,

Thank you!  That's exactly what I was looking for.  I got 
module-assistant to compile but I couldn't get it to use local sources 
instead of downloading them.  Yes, you have a good point in that new 
changes need to be tested, but again I didn't want to wait for hours to 
generate a new set of kernel packages.  For now, I'm fine with Speakup 
compiled as modules until I know it's stable and doesn't have crashes or 
unusual problems.
