Occasionally I have a problem with speakup, it seems to re-read a screen that was previously displayed rather than what is currently on the screen. I don't really know of anything in particular that causes it. But, for example, I might do a ifconfig and then a clear, and it will keep reading the ifconfig info as if it's still on the screen. I've noticed this behaviour in many versions of the kernel. I know at least that it's happened with kernels i've compiled myself from 2.6.12 through 2.6.18. I can't say for sure that it's happened on machines running a kernel downloaded from Shane's space on the debian server. Anyway, I am mostly interested in knowing if there's a way to get speakup to "refresh" itself or whatever. -- John Heim jheim at math.wisc.edu 3-4189
