rhel es 3 kernels available

[Trevor Astrope]

For anyone interested, I have rhel es 3 kernels available for i686 
architecture. I've been using the kernel-smp package for over a month with 
a dectalk express synth. The only problem I've experienced is the synth 
sometimes gets stuck in high pitch capital mode, but manages to work 
itself out, especially if I move around letter by letter on the numpad.

I don't believe the packages violate any licensing, as they were compiled 
from the source rpm. However, you will likely forfeit your Red Hat support 
if you use these kernels. I would also strongly urge you not to use these 
kernels on a production system and only use them on your personal 
workstation.

You can get the packages at http://www.tabbweb.com/rhel-3-speakup/

You will need access to a machine that already has rhel 3 installed to use 
these packages. It is possible to rebuild the installer and cd's with the 
kernel-BOOT rpm. I did this, so I know it is possible to install rhel with 
speech. However, it would violate the rhel license if I distributed a 
speakup modified rhel, so I won't go there. But there are a lot of 
resources on the net for doing this if you're inclined.

Enjoy,

Trevor
