Redhat 7.2 and Speakup

[Dave Hunt]

Dave,

First of all, the stock RH 7.2 loads the US keymap.  I think you'll find the
line in "/etc/rc.d/rc.local".  Look for a line containing "loadkeys".

Regarding the no speech at login prompt:  I'm guessing you have a "getty"
line in your "/etc/inittab" that puts a login session on the same serial
port as your doubletalk?  If yes, comment it out.  Better yet, make an
"inittab" with and without the line.

Regards,

-Dave
