Speakup_dectlk module under 2.6.26-1-686 on Debian Sid

[Erik Heil]

Hi,
I've tested with the module without hal-daemon.  Here though, its
completely dead.  We need to figure out exactly what's going on here.  Is
their any way to get some debugging information?  If we had this, I could
probably look into this further.  I believe what is happening here is
related to serial port initialization, however we won't know untill we get
some debugging information.
