A couple of questions: What is the Speakup RPM? I take it that this RPM replaces your kernel. I am not a Redhat user. When you say when a string begins with a '-', is this string given on the command line or in the resulting output from the programs in question? I am using a Transbook which is a Transport with a bunch of features for reading files on the unit I don't use anyway. so all I'm using are the Transport functions of the unit.
