Installing speakup from CVS

[Darragh]

Further to my earlier message I have been able to get a connection without a
firewall so I am atemptingtto use the checkout script my self.  I got two
errors though.
1 .cvspass didn't exist so I created that.
2. its complaining that the checkout script isn't giving it an absolute
pathname.


Any ideas?

Subject: Installing speakup from CVS

Hello, 
I have speakup downloaded from CVS however I couldn't use the checkout
script as I had to get someone who wasn't behind a firewall to send it to
me.  

I have a question.  from where do I run the install script that comes with
the speakup archive? if I run it from /usr/src/linux/drivers/char/speakup it
says "cp cannot stat 'speakup': no such file or directory.  I assume I'm
suppose to run it from there as the archive extracted with that structure.
I've tried running it from /usr/src/speakup as well but that returns the
same error.

I'm working on getting it up and running on another 64 bit machine and was
hoping I could learn a bit more by doing it using the CVS version.

I've tried trailing through the CVS script but I get lost in the list. I
thought it might have to be run from /usr/src/linux but That didn't give me
much joy either. 

Any help apreciated.
