I'm going to try your suggestion, but this doesn't totally make sense to
me. For one thing, console-tools wasn't finding a keymap before I did a
recompile so do I have to do make clean and recompile the speakup kernel
code too? Also, I didn't do the no-speech kernel from the same tree as
the speakup kernel. I re-unpacked the 2.4.5.tar.gz file and did my
no-speech compile from that, and I re-linked the new source tree with
/usr/src/linux before compiling and made sure it was in no way linked with
the original source I had done with speakup compiled in. Will let you
know if the process you suggested helps, but I'm puzzled as to why it
should be necessary.
