Hi, Looking at the cheapbytes store, I found that fedora core 4 was also in
a dvd format. When the speakup version is released, can you also please
make it in a dvd iso and or dvd from cheapbytes? It is a lot easier to
leave one disk in the drive for the entire installation and go away and do
other things with not wondering when I will need to put the next disk in it
and go back and check. Also, I tried to download and install speakup2.0 on
the 2.6.12 kernel when it was stable and a lot of the patches failed. So, I
am going to just stick with the fedora core 3 kernel untill version 4 is
ready because I see no sense in building another kernel when I will just
have to rebuild and install it again. Is there a way to upgrade to fedora
core 4 with out rebooting the system and not keeping any old versions of
packages and installing everything else so I have the entire os? I have a
80 GB drive with a 512 MB swap and the rest one linux primary partition. I
also found a bug in the dectalk express driver for speakup. I will be
typing normal and then type a capital letter and then the dectalk express
drops in pitch as soon as I type it, the letter next and all other speech is
lower pitches and I need to turn off and back on or set the pitch back. bye
