Yes, it does, thanks. This makes me wonder something else though. How
much later is speakup coming up than it used to in the old days? What
I mean is how much of the boot messages aren't we getting now, as
opposed to what we got in the old days? This question is purely
academic, since we still get speakup early enough to troubleshoot
kernel panics and so on, but I'm curious nevertheless. Looking at
dmesg, I see speakup being initialized somewhere after the
keyboard/mouse controller, and right before the root fs is mounted. If
memory serves, I seem to remember speakup coming up in the old days
well before the ide controller, or whatever controller one has. Is
that about right? If so, then it seems like we are missing quite a
bit, which I guess means that among other things, speakup couldn't be
used for kernel hacking as it now stands. Thanks.

Greg
