	Okay, then it's the keyboard, which, of course, being a 
Mickeysoft product, I despise...Especially the Function key changer 
switch that keeps it's value when pressed, even after a power-off.  I'm 
sure, like I've seen evidence of, that my keyboard is one of those ones 
with keystroke logging capabilities.  The fact that it remembers that 
I've pressed that function key changing switch proves to me it contains 
non-volatile memory.

	Hmmm.  Well, I'll try deleting /etc/speakup and try it again.  
Maybe that'll work.  TIA,
