No, I don't think the kernel has updated since that time and I messed with my serial synth befor that point in time anyway. I can echo text to it to /dev/ttyS0 and that part works great but when I try to use the speakup_spkout module to use the Speakout synth with speakup, I get silence. I don't know how to debug this either. I really don't have kernel hacking skills to speak uf. I wonder if there is anything else I can look for. I also use an Arch system so we do have that in common. That's why I'm surprised you can do it but I can't. Unless it has something to do with each specific synth module.
