<DIV><FONT color=#000000 size=2>I have never patched or compiled the kernel
before and I did read the installation docs before running the patch
prgram. In the installation documenation it says first to patch speakup by
typing patch -p0 <speakup-0.08-patch. After I typed in that line it
gave me an error saying the -p is invalid and also said can't find file to
patch at input line 4. And then t asks me to enter a file to patch and I
typed in speakup-0.08-patch and it gave me a hunk #1 ailed at 8961 and I aborted
after that. I'm using Mandrake-linux 7.0 kernel 2.3.14 on a p133, 96mb of
ram , 3.2bg hard drive 1mb of video ram and a soundblaster 16.</FONT></DIV>
