Well, first of all, in reply to Bill's question, I did use a speakup boot disk for the install of linux. Second, I don't know if kudzu is running, I assume so because it sounds like something that is turned on by default. Thirdly, the advice I was given here was that Linux was looking for a modem on com one. This is probably true because the word at appears on the braille display. I am using a braille lite forty and not a braille and speak. It is just running with speech on and in speech box mode. so, I'm assuming that linux is looking on com one for a modem. How do I set it up to see the braille lite, and is it worth it to do now because I don't even know if I have speakup installed as a part of my kernel. As I said previously, I don't think so, because I was using a speakup boot disk, but I don't know if what you use for a kernel on the boot disk gets installed as part of the kernel on your hard drive. Again please help!! I am definitely new to this, actually, most of the things discussed on this list are over my head, but I figure I'll learn someday.
