a slackware 9.1 question

[Stephen Clower]

Hello folks,
  I have just installed Slackware 9.1 onto a computer using my Braille Lite for the synthesizer during installation. When I login as root, though, the commands
setserial /dev/ttys0 uart none
modprobe speakup_bns
do nothing. Since a sound card is not enabled by default, I can't figure out exactly what's going on here. When asked for the kernel version to use, I copied the kernel from the speakup.s floppy so I would be able to use Speakup when I booted into Slackware. Did I mis something here?
