Using what user agent? I'm wondering if you're accessing over ftp or http? I generally answer these kinds of nebulous questions assuming people mean their web browser, therefore http. If you're logging in with an ftp client, clearly you can use anonymous ftp, but the path becomes: cd pub/speakup/disks/redhat/ > > Went to the page you indicated and all I see was mention of the RH9 kernals > and nothing about RH8 or earlier. Ah, you did go via http. That's correct, then.

I'm not sure when RH went from 32 to 64. Yes, you can certainly compile Speakup 1.5 into a kernel source from RH 7.x. However, I would suggest using CVS Speakup even for that. I would also suggest getting the latest available kernel src for your RH version. > > Thanks. > At 11:43 11/12/03, you wrote: > >For the current Fedora Core 1.0: > > > >http://www.linux-speakup.org/ftp/disks/fedora/1/ > > > >For previous versions under the Red Hat name: > > > >http://www.linux-speakup.org/ftp/disks/redhat/ > > > >PS: You might want to go to that last address using an ftp anonymous > >login to get kernels for Red Hat 8.0 systems.
