G'day, Isn't there an FC5 kernel with SpeakUp compiled in that is downloable from the SpeakUp site? Going from memory you do the FC5 install thing, ummmm somehow shrug, and then drop the kernel into the mix to get speech. Janine or someone else can you set me and others interested in this response straight on this point... I'm presently downloading a VMWare FC5 virtual appliance and I'm hoping to do just this as I've mentioned above. Cheers.

I would reinstall fedora core 3 but that version is rather old now and I don't really like the installer as it is not very speech friendly and keyboard friendly. Will fedora ever be usable in it's latest version with speakup and not just in version 3 and 4 with the kernels on the speakup page? -- My web page is http://www.nickgawronski.com Email services by FreedomBox.
