In the mean while, I realized that must be it. What I have done so far was to put the files resulting from a git-pull into thje .tar.bz2 file resulting from the apt-get install speakup-source by recreating the .tar.bz2 file using the replaced files and running: module-assistant build speakup, I got the modules built and got a .deb package, but when trying to modprobe the modules I get errors regarding unknown simbols e.g. speakup_set_selection and others and the module does not load. Any tips?
