I too will be taking on the task of patching a running linux. Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated. I programmed in C on unix in the 80s, but that ain't linux now! Thanx from an almost novice.

I have some questions: Speakup can work with a linux kernel 2.4.4? I'm using the braille and speak speech synthesizer. After I compile the kernel with speakup, I recieve the message "error in CRC system halted", when I reboot the system. I need a more detailed instructions of how to compile the kernel with speakup, because I'm a inexperient in kernel compilation. I'm using slackware 7.1. Can someone help me? Thanks. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
