help with install of debian and speakup!?

[Charles Hallenbeck]

There is a problem with the speakup26 kernel, in that the mark/cut/paste 
feature crashes the system when you press cut. I recommend starting with 
the 2.4.27 kernel, then upgrading to one of the 2.6.12 kernels available 
on Shane's file space.
