I want to run Huh? What's that? And why would you find it helpful to pay money when you can get Linux for free, preconfigured with Speakup? No offense, but I fear you have wasted your money, hopefully not very much. You can look at my Installation HOWTO to get started studying what you need to know to use Linux with Speakup, and particularly to learn some ways to install it. Yes, it's dated, but still quite relevent in many details: http://SpeakupModified.Org/HOWTO_INSTALL.html If you decide to go with Fedora, wait a few days. Fedora 7 is due out later this week. Some other excellent options--which provide Speakup ready to use--include Ubuntu and Debian. There are others as well. Now if you're going to insist on trying to use that thing you bought on Ebay--well, I don't know. Janina > this software from a 500gig external hard drive if it's possible.
