Hi Nick. Git is a version control system like svn and cvs. We are switching to git because that is what the kernel people are using now days. The v2.2 and v2.4 diffs are still in cvs because Kirk hasn't found the time to remove them, although speakup in cvs is no longer backwards compatible with kernels beyond 2.6.21. You have to understand that the kernel folks don't necessarily maintain backwards compatibility across kernel versions. You can get older cvs versions of speakup by providing a date for kernels back to version 2.6.12, but not earlier. For 2.4 kernels, you need the speakup 2.0 tarball. I don't know if the speakup 1.5 tarball will still work with 2.2 kernels or not. Hope this helps. Gene
