Hi, Make sure all packages are the versions you need. To do this use apt-show-versions package name. The nice thing is all the packages you need you can get with apt-get install packagename Also note you are going to have to make your own kernel because the debian version of the speakup kernel does not have sftsyn in it. That brings up a good question A linux kernel is just that a linux kernel right? So lets say I downloaded the rpm kernels maid debian packages using alien would they install and work on my debian system? If so all I would have to do is get the packages convert them to deb packages and send them to the sight and we would have new kernels we could install using dpkg -I package name. Let me know if that is possible. -----Original Message----- From: speakup-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:speakup-bounces at braille.uwo.ca] On Behalf Of Kirk Reiser Sent: 2005-04-23 6:31MD To: Speakup is a screen review system for Linux. Cc: Speakup Distribution List Subject: Re: speechd-up compile error Hi Chuck You should check the installation document again but I think you have not installed the glibc2-dev package or something like that. All of the packages mentioned in the installation docs must be installed. I hope to modify that someday soonish because I think it is to complicated the way it is.
