Comment out which line? Are you saying it doesn't matter if the call to __release_region works or not or that it works but gives a bogus error message? Its trying to "steal" the serial ports. So it checks if they are available, trys to free them, and then checks again if they are free. So are you saying to not bother to try to free them, just go ahead and use them. Or are you saying try to free them but ignore whether it appears that they've been freed or not? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kitty Litter" <n8kl@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: "Speakup is a screen review system for Linux." <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Tuesday, February 07, 2012 5:28 PM Subject: Re: more on speakup bug > This has been a known problem and probably will never be fixed.
