Hi Chris and all those who were of such great help last week. Just wanted to let you all know that with your help and support, plus a link from a fellow classmate I was able to get the assignment finished and turned in 3 hours early. Of course after spending over 60 hours on this assignment, my prof sent out a note this morning saying that he wasn't expecting for the students to spend more than 10 hours on an assignment :-) -----Original Message----- From: Chris Brannon [mailto:chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, July 19, 2013 8:19 AM To: Speakup is a screen review system for Linux.

No. We discussed this several years ago, and we concluded that it won't work. It's pretty much infeasible to use the tty devices (/dev/ttyS*) from kernel space. That discussion might be available in the list archives. I've been told that the solution to our serial problems in Speakup is to write a tty line discipline. I don't really understand how to do it. -- Chris _______________________________________________ Speakup mailing list Speakup at linux-speakup.org http://linux-speakup.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/speakup
