Hi, Jes. I use Mandrake 9.2, but as far as I know I am the only one on this list that does use Mandrake regularly. I've had several problems getting speakup to compile with Mandrake's kernel source package. You really want Mandrake's kernel source rather than a generic kernel source as Mandrake has added stuff like supermount support, some extra drivers, and some other things that are not in the stock kernel source from kernel.org. If I could figure out why speakup wasn't compiling currectly I'd probably maintain a speakup enabled Mandrake version for download, or at least speakup kernel rpms on the web site. However, even though speakup at this point hasn't been cooperating with Drake I am using emacspeak, flite, and yasr which all work fine under drake. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jes and guide dog Harley" <jesman598@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Saturday, March 20, 2004 7:55 PM Subject: Mandrake Linux and speakup > Hi all, > I was wondering why speakup has never been ported to the mandrake Linux operating system.
