Yes, that's a big help - Thanks. One other question, loadkeys -k loads the "default keymap? Which default? What I mean is I thought the speakup patches modify the keyboard; wouldn't this "patched" keyboard now be the acting default? How does one get the original unpatched one instead? I wonder if I need to save out the keymap before applying speakup. I could be missing a big point here so would be glad if someone needs to point out the "error of my ways":). Thanks again for the idea about /proc/speakup/synth - good one!
