-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Thanks, I understand that, and this is exactly what the speakup-source package does as far as I can tell. Maybe I wasn't asking what I want to know in the best way, so let me try to clarify. The module-assistant man page reiterates more than once, that you should be building modules against the source of the currently running kernel. So, what I wanted to know is can I use the speakup-source package to build the speakup modules against the 2.6.26 kernel, while still running 2.6.25.12, or must I be running 2.6.26 to build the speakup modules against it? Hopefully, this makes what I'd like to know a bit clearer. Thanks.
