I did not see any error rmessages, neither when I applied the patches that came with SlackWare, nor when I used checkout. And every time I started with an absolutely clean kernel source [I tried more then one of course]. But I tried again usibng checkout, no errors as before and then used the checkout from drivers/char/speakup which, not very surprisingly I think, did nothing. But this time it compiled without any problems. I don't understand, but am happy about it :) Nedt task is to find a speech synthesizer. The computer shops I asked so far only reacted with "huh?"... Are there any Dutchmen subscribed to this list who can give me a hint? Groetjes, Hans. --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.5/040412 * Origin: The Wizard is using MBSE/Linux (2:280/1018)
