Greg, I've updated speakup2.tgz so that it contains bns migration also: https://github.com/bytefire/speakup-decext/raw/master/speakup2.tgz Replace speakup directory under drivers/staging/ with the updated one and run this from root of kernel source tree: make M=drivers/staging/speakup clean && make M=drivers/staging/speakup I still need to update the patches I sent.
