Hi all,

I am currently trying to compile a linux-2.4.20 kernel with speakup (cvs)
patched in.

I am running Debian testing.

I am making the kernel with make-kpkg

It seems to compile most of it, but it always ends up with errors such as
the following:

drivers/char/char.o(.text+0x1865c): In function o_slock':
: undefined reference to ey_maps'

There are also a lot more  errors that have trouble with 'key_maps' but in
other functions, most errors seem to be all in drivers/char/char.o

There are also undefined references to 'func_table' and 'accent_table'.

Can anyone tell me if they have experienced the same problems and if so, how
they fixed them.

I'm assuming its something really simple like I haven't got a certain
library installed.

Oh, I am just using the x86 platform (in fact, I have a Pentium3 450... I
must upgrade that one day).

I am also using gcc-3.0 ... but as far as I remember, I'm sure I got the
same errors with gcc-2.95.

I firstly used a linux-2.4.19 and patched it to 2.4.20 and then patched in
speakup.
But I still have exactly the same proplems using a fresh linux-2.4.20 and
speakup patched in.

(I can compile a fresh 2.4.20 kernel fine without speakup patched in).

Thanks
