Just for my own info, how does Fedora do management of merrors with yum
reposatories?  Is there something equivelent to apt-setup where you select from
a list?

Janina,

Do you have a yum repo tree on
speakupmodified.org

If not, it may not be a bad idea, because then all the user would need
to do is a yum -y upgrade and the kernels would be picked up.
That is of course once the user has added the speakup.repo to their
/etc/yum.repo.d directory.
If you would like some assistance setting this up, I would be glad to
help out.
