Hiya,
I know this might be a rather elementary question for Linux people to answer. However, I've become aware through reading the LFS book that the kernel headers are a rather important thing. Slackware ships with 2.4.33.3. I'm pretty sure that the kernel headers are 2.4.33.3 as well.
All that being said, I'd like to get Speakup support with a more recent kernel. I know I can probably download, compile, etc. something like 2.6.20 or 2.6.21. I know also that Slackware provides 2.6.17 in Extra. My question is: does that 2.6.17 version already have Speakup included? If not, should I download its source code from a Slackware package site and patch it in myself? And what about those pesky headers?
Sorry for the barrage of questions. I'm confedent once I figure out what exactly is happening I'll be good to go.
Thanks,
Zack.
