Hello Robby: It's possible that you got a flakey version of speakup from git particularly if you grabbed it yesterday before four or five in the afternoot EST. We were trying some buffer locking stuff which didn't work out very well. I recommend pulling again and giving it another go. I installed a version last evening and had no trouble telling it to shut-up after it started talking on boot. -- Kirk Reiser The Computer Braille Facility e-mail: kirk at braille.uwo.ca University of Western Ontario phone: (519) 661-3061
