speakup errors when compiling linux 2.4.19

[William F. Acker WB2FLW +1-303-777-8123]

Hi all,

     It seems that they're adding new miscellaneous devices all the 
time.  Kirk:  I really think it would be a great idea to get character 
10/25 put into makedev before someone else grabs it.

     Greg: change to the root of your source tree.  Then go to 
linux/include.  Use the attached very small patch in the following way.
patch -p0 <miscdevice.patch
Naturally, you'll have to specify the path to the patch.  It should be 
much better now.



          HTH.
          Bill
