But there are directions on the speakup web site for patching a 2.6 kernel. It even specifically says to run 'make mproper' bbefore running the install script if you're patching a 2.6 kernel. But no complaints here. Speakup rocks. I just didn't want anybody to think I was that dumb. :-) Besides, the CVS archive does seem to be working. So that's better anyway. I'm doing a make-kpkg as I write this. So, with any luck, I will shortly have a kernel that will run on my little soekris computer on a card.
