-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: RIPEMD160 In reply to my original message, I figured out my problem I just reported. Since I use a RAMFS I had to do a 'update-initramfs -u' and that got me to use the correct speakup modules. It appears that most of the speakup parameters are updating with speakupconf load now. I still make a couple observations but I will have to trace the script and see if I can offer more details. But at least I don't get a bunch of errors like I did previously. But I just tried to restore an updated characters from my saved parameters and that doesn't work. I can save individual chars like '122 z' and that seemed to update correctly with a kernel message that one character was replaced. So I may have to rethink how speakupconf will work. Hmmm, maybe a rewrite is in order.
