greetings all. does anyone have a 2.2.17 kernel with speakup built-in to it. I downloaded and created the three cds of the debian 2.2 release which is using the kernel 2.2.17. However, the disks on the speakup site are for 2.2.14. this causes all sorts of errors with modules when installting from my 2.2.17 cds. I also tried installing with linux console=ttyS0 and figured I could build a kernel with speakup in it later but it appears that the supplied kernels on the debian cds don't have support for a console on a serial port. as you can tell, I am fairly new at all this so any ideas would be appreciated. thanks. brian.
