Hi, The patchset now contains a separate patch for dev name-to-number conversion functionality inside tty_io.c. These patches extend speakup support to ttyUSB* and lp*. They introduce a new module param dev whose function is similar to ser but instead of taking serial port number as argument, it takes strings like ttyS0 or ttyUSB0. Patch 1 adds functionality to convert such strings into dev_t. Patch 2 uses the function in patch 1 and performs some checks. Patch 3 adds new module param and actually extends support to more than ttyS*. Samuel, I have kept the Reviewed-by for patch 3 which has slightly changed from before - 'dev' renamed to 'dev_name' - but not for patch 2 which is a bit different now that dev name to number conversion has moved to tty_io.c. Please let me know if you think otherwise.
