Yes, there is something you can do to insure that speakup will use the second serial port. Both in the installation, and in the append= in your lilo.conf, add speakup_ser=1 to the parameters. So, you might say, during installation: text speakup_synth=ltlk speakup_ser=1 and in your lilo.conf: append="speakup_synth=ltlk speakup_ser=1" Note the double quotation marks. PS: Don't say com1 or com2 when speaking of linux. That isn't a linux designation, it's a DOS/Windows designation. The correct unix/linux terminology is ttyS0 and ttyS1 for the first and second serial ports, respectively.
