The official x86 livecd will ship with a 2.4 kernel with speakup built into it. There will also be an smp kernel on that cd, how ever, it is a 2.6.3 kernel, and there appear to be a lot of problems with speakup and this kernel, so speakup will not be included in the 2.6 smp kernel. > > Gentoo is trying to have quarterly releases of gentoo, though we seem to have gotten a bit of a late start on the releases this year. I don't have a release date for gentoo-2004.1 yet but from what I've been told, it's probably going to be soon, to try and keep on the release schedule from now on. We really hope to have a fully functional x86 livecd, including a working 2.6 kernel for the next release, but we will see how that ends up. > > As a side note, we're still working on the possibility of getting speakup included on the livecds of other arches. Currently I don't have the hardware to test any of this, but if I'm lucky, I may have a sparc box and an amd64 box to test with this summer, so we will see how that goes as well. I might also be able to get my hands on a ppc box durring the school year after september to do some testing there to as well. > > Thanks! > > Deedra > > > > - -- > Gentoo Linux: dmwaters at gentoo.org, > http://www.gentoo.org > > Freenode staff member: dmwaters at freenode.net , http://www.freenode.net > > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) > > iD8DBQFAPpOtU5AGPOTGNc8RAsR6AKCoIcTLBqTpMOvLbOkrryyiDJpQUgCfQbHD > B7TMAQpzCvatZGs+Tau78oc= > =/wrw > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- > > _______________________________________________ > Speakup mailing list > Speakup at braille.uwo.ca > http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup - -- Always borrow money from a pessimist; he doesn't expect to be paid back. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFAPp2T9XVrM3ri110RAmktAJ9rf59leXlIj5Wt8HAOYA0UjOau0wCdF6T5 urZXykUJ3ei2ruwn8wAoC3Q= =Yrga -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
