Hi If any of you are going to patch a 2.3/2.4test kernel with speakup v0.09, the patch seems to have a problem where it only looks for 2.3.99-pre8. So make a symlink from your source directory to 2.3.99-pre8: ln -s linux linux-2.3.99-pre8 It will patch perfectly then. Jacob Schmude mailto:jacobs at ncinter.net ICQ: 53401220
