problems compiling festival enabled kernel

[Jacob Schmude]

Hi all
Well, I went and grabbed the patches for speakup with festival, grabbed the 
2.4.19 kernel source and patched it up properly, or so I thought. But I 
must've done something wrong somewhere along the lines. The kernel compile 
goes fine until it reaches speakup_drvcommon.c, then fails. On line 136 I 
get a parse error right before the serial struct, and on line 144 it says 
the identifier `parent' is undeclared. Here's how I patched it up: untarred 
the package, installed speakup 1.00 to the kernel 2.4.19 source, it patched 
fine. Then copied all the files in the source distro to their proper place, 
all the includes, etc. Configured the kernel and chose both litetalk and 
festival options, setting the default to litetalk for now. Did make dep 
clean modules bzlilo. That's when it fails with the two errors. Odd thing 
is, I can't see what would've broken it, aside from the festival lines I 
can't see any real changes to the speakup source. But, I'm not proficient 
in C really so I've probably missed something. I did not include a sound 
card in the kernel could this produce the problem? The reason I didn't 
include a sound card is because I want to use the ALSA drivers, as I've 
done in the past--they're the only drivers that support my onboard chip. 
Well, the commercial drivers do too but why pay for them when the ALSA 
drivers are better?

Any ideas?
Regards
Jacob
