List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: It's official. Slackware is now officially supporting speakup thanks to Raul calecos. (probably not spelling his last name correctly.) For now, the 2.2 kernels are supported, now if we can get the 2.4s to work. This makes Slackware the first of the big distros to have screen access from bootup to shutdown. Cudos also to Matt Cambel for getting zipspeak together. That showed us that speakup could really work in a distro. Um, if you can't already tell, I'm excited. Cheers, Joshua Lambert
