When you run the checkout script, it expects to find a directory /usr/src/linux. Now that most recent kernels go into a directory including the version number like linux-2.4.20, you would need to create a symbolic link pointing linux to linux-2.4.20. I did this very step just the otherday and the checkout script went fine. The result of running the script will patch the actual speakup directories within the linux source tree and not the speak-1.0 source. Now if you used CVS to download the entire patch collection instead of running the checkout script, then you would put that directory (say speakup-1.0.cvs for example) then run the install script from inside the new speakup directory. In any case, the patches are applied directly to the linux source code itself. After all that:) just run the usual 'make config' step like you always do for a kernel compile. -- Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments.
