Now that you mention it, I think I remember hearing that before. But there 
are directions on the speakup web site for patching a 2.6 kernel. It even 
specifically says to run 'make mproper' bbefore running the install script 
if you're patching a 2.6 kernel.

But no complaints here. Speakup rocks. I just didn't want anybody to think 
I was that dumb. :-)

Besides, the CVS archive does seem to be working.  So that's better anyway. 
I'm doing a make-kpkg as I write this. So, with any luck, I will shortly 
have a kernel that will run on my little soekris computer on a card.
