Hi all. I used git to get speakup and installed it in the kernel source for the 2.6.29 downloaded from debian. I compiled using make-kpkg and installed the .deb package. I do have an initrd in case that makes a difference. The ltlk (for my doubletalk lt) parameter was added to my kernel line in the menu.lst. It boots fine but unfortunately i still get the error about too many timeouts and even if I manage to turn speakup off while booting speakup is deactivated; i have no speech and can't turn it back on again once I am booted. My full_time setting does show 40000. Is there any more I can do about this? I suppose I can just go back to using speakup with espeakup as a module but then I don't hear boot information from the beginning and besides, laugh if you like, but i have a fondness for the old doubletalk lt. I know it always did have some problems with stopping during boot at some point but I always used to be able to start it up again. Any suggestions would be appreciated both for solving this problem and any way of reactivating it. I compiled into the kernel rather than using modules.
