That way you will still have the older, presumably working kernel until you establish the new one is OK. You can always 'rpm -e' the old kernel once you know the new one is good. > I am able to login > as root to my fedora core 6 system and even if I do modprobe > speakup_dectlk I get no speech and hear no beep when pressing back space With Speakup built into the initrd you should have had speech through the entire boot process, but I have seen this sometimes not working over the past half year or so. It has sometimes been bad enough for me that I've had to reseat my RS232 connector and power cycle both computer and external synth. Go figure. I presume you're issuing the modprobe natively on the console? And not over ssh? PS: I'm currently on the same kernel as you, but with a Doubletalk. Janina
