Hi again, everyone: Thanks to all who replied. Bill, I'm downloading everything from your redhat-7.0 directory as I write this. One of my co-admins is coming by later this morning to help me get my system back up onto our network. Once that's done, I'll tackle upgrading the kernel to 2.2.17. I will most likely want to give you a call because I really haven't, as yet, had too much experience with kernels. Thanks again, and I'm looking forward to working with speakup. As I begin using it, I'll be more than happy to share my experiences and/or suggestions. Looking forward to working with you all. Pete De Vasto ----- Original Message ----- From: "William F.
