This info is contained in the speakup announcement for each version, which can be found in the tarball of each release. Since I happen to have both unpacked on my system, I can tell you that speakup 1.0 requires at least kernel 2.2.18 or any 2.4.x kernel (though more recent 2.4 x kernels probably don't work, 2.4.12 was current at time of release). Speakup 1.5 requires at least 2.2.18 or 2.4.18. Note that with recent 2.4.x kernels (2.4.22 for example), a hunk will fail when patching. This is nothing to worry about, as the particular hunk fails because that code has been included in the kernel sources themselves so it doesn't need to be patched in. Hope this helps. Geoff.
