Hi all! It's been ages! As it happens, I just solved that problem last night, at least, I hope I did. grab ftp://speakup.octothorp.org/pub/redhat-7.0/RPMS/kernel-2.2.16-22.i686.rpm. The RPMS part is uppercase. Then, do: rpm -iv --force <path>kernel-2.2.16-22.i686.rpm. Then, edit /etc/lilo.conf. Right above or below the line that says "default=linux" put: append="speakup_synth=acntsa" or you could try txprt instead of acntsa. Save the file and run lilo by typing lilo at a command prompt. Reboot, and magic should happen. Any questions, call or write.
