Are you sure yum didn't upgrade your kernel to a kernel that doesn't have Speakup? That's what this sounds like. Go get the latest Speakup Modified kernel and rpm -iv it. Make it your boot default.

You don't want yum messing with your kernels. pl at adaptech.net writes: > Hi all: > After my last yum update I can't get speakup to talk.
