Hi Folks:  I have made quite a few changes to speakup in cvs over the
past two weeks.

First of all I rewrote the keyboard.c interface for the 2.2.x and
2.4.x trees to bring speakup into conformance with the official kernel
tree.

I also rewrote the way speakup registers the /dev/synth misc device to
allow the 2.4.x kernels to use devfs.

Finally, I rewrote the speakup interface to drivers/char/Makefile and
drivers/char/speakup/Makefile to utilize Shanes suggestion of having a
speakup.map.c.  I used a portion of Shanes patch for the 2.2.x tree,
so thank you very much Shane.

I would appreciate if people would check out the latest version and
make sure it all works okay.  It works for me with the 2.4.9ac4 and
2.2.19 kernels.

  Kirk
