keymap of speakup and kernel 2.4.20

[Saqib Shaikh]

Hi

It's a while since I did this, but my recollections are:

1.  cd /path-to-keymaps
2.  cp keymap.map.gz speakup.map.gz

This just backs up your chosen keymap to a speakup keymap.  Then:

3.  gunzip speakup.map.gz
4.  Download ftp://ftp.braille.uwo.ca/pub/speakup/generic-speakup.map to
your home directory.
5.  cat ~/generic-speakup.map >>speakup.map
6.  gzip speakup.map
7.  rm -f ~/generic-speakup.map

So you download the file generic-speakup.map which contains only the
Speakup-specific keys, and then add this to the end of your Speakup map.

Now you can just specify speakup.map.gz in your rc.local file.

Hope this works, and let me know in either case!

Hello Listers,

i have created a new kernel 2.4.20 for
my system with the speakup 1.5 tar-ball.
The kernel starts and speakup works.
I use slackware 8.0. In the rc.local i load the kyboarddriver for germany
latin1-de-nodeadkeys and after that the generic.map, so i can use the
nummeric keys. That works fine with kernels 2.2.20 and 2.2.25, but with
the 2.4.20 kernel if have a other keyboard layout.
If i press the "5" on the nummeric-keyboard, speakup says one line above
(same as before "7" with kernel 2.2.25). "2" goes lft one word, "6" goes
down one line and so on.

What can i do, so that i become back the original keymap for speakup "7"
up one line, "8" actual line, "9" down one line, and so on.

Reguards.
Dietmar
