-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Steve, The Slackware 9.1 distribution uses kernel 2.4.22 with speakup 1.5, and the drivers are all compiled into the kernel directly, not as modules. So your modprobe command is not appropriate. You need to specify your synth name at the lilo boot prompt, and when you get to root, add an "append" line to lilo.conf and then run lilo again. I think what you need at the lilo boot prompt is this: ramdisk speakup_synth=bns speakup_ser=0 HTH Chuck - -- The Moon is Waning Gibbous (79% of Full) My home page is now at http://www.mhcable.com/~chuckh -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iQCVAwUBQJ0aZzVdG8M9x9tGAQIKfQP/aos9gFBjwYTf+W56NzCZ8XMJ/4x1da9k GgtA1D+n9e3yuVhbdejaB2+v5N7mhGPZWrXGP3DuoT0cpij78ALPsXOeEtZRDi+0 rckQ3M6OHY5dil0xQXWjOfU9vGE14i2dWJig0M1pYokrfhH1EAI8p8IPZF3TBhPt ITPitiT1PL8= =b+5g -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
