-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I happened to find out about the issue with CVS Speakup and kernel 2.6.16 first hand. As it turns out, for some reason my laptop refuses to run kernel 2.6.17, however 2.6.16 works great. So I tried to patch the 2.6.16 source with the latest Speakup and got about 10 or more failures. I had to use trial and error to pick the right date to patch 2.6.16 because I couldn't remember the date when the revision was made that allowed Speakup to patch 2.6.17. As it turns out, if you set the revision date to 20060618, (June 18th), your 2.6.16 kernel will patch with no trouble at all. You also may want to consider moving to 2.6.17, but as I mentioned, it could be problematic on some machines. It works flawlessly on my tower, but spews some text I can't read on my laptop (which doesn't have a serial port and needs softsynth), and shuts down without even mounting any partitions from the hard disk. HTH, Lorenzo - -- Don't let your mind wander -- it's too little to be let out alone. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFErt2xG9IpekrhBfIRArMHAKDE1lFlNhmG3SX1pJO577b3xINw8wCgrpAg ow+uyewwDkgn7Ma3U2bf7go= =+S0J -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
