Hi, Will I also need to recompile alsa modules or can I just use the ones from the earlier kernel with the newer kernel if I configure the kernel to allow it to use older modules? I am trying to make my kernel upgrades on my own schedual and not when debian upgrades the kernels as I like to just build my own kernels and install as I please. Is it still possible from the git sources to compile the dectalk express driver into the kernel if I should want to do this? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Daniel Dalton" <d.dalton@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Saturday, December 20, 2008 7:38 PM Subject: Re: system with speakup software already installed? > On Sat, Dec 20, 2008 at 06:51:09PM -0600, Nick Gawronski wrote: >> Hi, I am using debian unstable and was wondering what packages I will >> need to download in order to be able to fetch the latest git speakup > > sudo apt-get install git-core > > As a start. > > Note, you could grab the kernel from experimental, if they are up to > 2.6.27: > Edit sources.list appropriately, and then run > sudo apt-get update > Next apt-get source the right kernel and then modify your sources.list > to use the lenny servers again, or whatever version you are running... > This way you'll get debian patches, of course, kernel.org will be > fine... > That might just be a little quicker, I dunno, but it sounds like you > have a good idea on what your doing. > >> run a local git server what package would I also need to download for >> this? > > Dunno, sorry... > > Hope that helps a bit > > Daniel > _______________________________________________ > Speakup mailing list > Speakup at braille.uwo.ca > http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup >
