-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 The netinst iso available from people.debian.org/~shane/ does have a speakup-enabled 2.6.8 kernel, which you can get by using the speakup26 target (I.E. speakup26 speakup_synth=xxx). You'll want to update that kernel image as soon as you can though, since the cvs version of speakup in that kernel has a broken cut/paste, which crashes the machine if used, at least on the 32-bit systems.
