I'm no hardware expert, at all, and it just seems as if I'm at a serious disadvantage here. I can't install Linux without using Speakup, and I can't use Speakup without a serial port, and I can't, well, you get the idea. I know there are probably many technical reasons for this situation. However, i'm just honestly at a loss for what to try. Actually, my computer doesn't even seem to boot live CDs correctly. But there is another problem, eh? Thanks for your help, guys. All the best, Zack. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Luke Yelavich" To: Sent: Friday, July 27, 2007 11:42 PM Subject: Re: PCI serial? > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > On Sat, Jul 28, 2007 at 04:24:08PM EST, Zachary Kline wrote: >> Hiya, > >> I've finally decided to quit monkeying around in virtual machines >> and go out and look for a PCI serial I/O card with ports.
