Hi, This is primarily for Kirk. This afternoon I built a kernel 2.4.17 with the latest version of Speakup using the CVS checkout script. The kernel came up talking but the review keys were all wrong! I checked to make sure that my /etc/sysconfig/keyboard specified speakup and it did. I then reloaded the keymap with loadkeys with the same result. I then copied a backup of the keymap into the proper directory and ran loadkeys again--still the same result. I then rebooted into 2.4.15 and everything was normal again. The only thing I haven't tried was rebuilding 2.4.17 with the standard 1.00 install to see if I get normal keyboard function. Jim Wantz WB0TFK
