Speakup & 2.6.12 kernels

[Garry Turkington]

Hi,

I've built Speakup from CVS into every sub-release of the vanilla 
2.6.12 kernel as well as the Fedora mangled version.

So I'd suggest the errors are due to Debian-specific kernel changes. 
Simply ignoring the rejected patches is not likely a wise course of 
action, try applying the rejected patches by hand - they'll be in the .rej 
files in the apposite directories.

Regards,
Garry
