Announcing SpeakupModified Fedora 8 Kernels & Firefox RPMS

[Janina Sajka]

Thanks, Gregg. Glad to hear this, and I'll pass your compliments along
to Ed.

Now, does anyone know how we get Speakup to automagically get out of the
way in the GUI console? I'm hearing rumors that there's a stragith
forward, simple code patch way to do that. Yes, we can kill Speakup with
Print Screen and dismiss the screen snapshot, but that's a hokey
workaround, not a real solution, of course.
