Hi all, I have just successfully compiled and installed the 2.2.18 kernel with speakup 0.10a on slackware 7.1. Everything works fine, and I'm able to boot and login and everything is normal. However, I noticed that as the system boots, the kernel reports that it's missing the slip, ppp, and some other modules (my nic's among them). Also, i have built the support for my sblive card directly into the kernel. At boot up, the driver finds the card, reports its model, version, irq, base i-o and all that good stuff. However, when I do 'play ' wave file, it says that slash dev slash dsp is not found. What's wrong? Should I hear some sound from linux on boot up like you do in windblows? Also, now that I have USB scanner support, I remember reading something on the list about a command-line OCR program. What is it called, is it accurate (compared to openbook ruby for windblows), how can I get it, and how much is it? Come to think of it, I think it was referred to as ocrshop, but I'm not sure. Thanks in advance for any help. Greg P.S. Sorry about typing out the slashes, but I'm writing this on a braille note, and it doesn't let you switch to computer braille in the middle of a message. p.s.2 About that hpt 366 controller on my mother board that I mentioned in a post a while back ... I compiled ata 66 support into the kernel, and it still doesn't see either of the controllers or the hd attached to one of them.
