-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: RIPEMD160 Thanks Tony for that good summary of steps. I also looked around in the /usr/share/doc/kernel-package (I believe it's called) and there was a good write-up there too. Your steps confirmed my observation about where to put the speakup/*.ko modules. I found out the hard way I had to mv them down to the speakup directory. I would have thought the 'make modules_install' would have done this directly. I'll have to read up on modules-assistent. I didn't do anything in that area yesterday and speakup is working for me. I did install the kernel headers; I'll have to take stock of the kernel stuff I did install but I had not untarred the source tree yet. I'm currently satisfied with using modules right now. I may eventually go with a strait kernel with one speakup module included and bypass initrd completely. Personally, I wonder about the usefullness of a initrd on a large desktop of my own. I suppose those are good for smaller systems where decisions have to be made as to which modules to include. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEAREDAAYFAkj94CoACgkQWSjv55S0LfFHvwCfa/CpPrWx7BzBkbBbNVXDyIsI COAAoOQrz4rtNQdQM8H/CMv0EaJpe+VP =m7u6 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
