need help getting fedora 6 to boot with speech

[Chuck Hallenbeck]

corey,

Are you certain your serial port is on the motherboard, and not on a PCI 
card? Speakup will only check for ttyS0 through ttyS3, and often a PCI 
card with a serial connector will avoid those addresses and use 
something like ttyS4 instead. Speakup will not work with such a 
card-based serial port.
