running speakup on f17 beta

Tue May 15 21:54:03 UTC 2012

Hi all,

      Sorry for the delay in answering. I maintain F17 kernels with Speakup 
enabled. I don't have much of a repository, but I can throw them up 
somewhere for you to grab. The right solution is to have the Fedora 
Project just turn them on, but I have no idea whom to contact. At the 
moment, I only have access to an x86_64 build environment, so that's the 
only binaries I have. You could download my SRC.rpm and rebuild it. Let me 
know if you want them, and I'll put them up.

      Here's my config-local file.

# This file is intentionally left empty in the stock kernel. Its a nicety
# added for those wanting to do custom rebuilds with altered config opts.
CONFIG_SPEAKUP=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_ACNTSA=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_ACNTPC=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_APOLLO=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_AUDPTR=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_BNS=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_DECTLK=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_DECEXT=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_DECPC=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_DTLK=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_KEYPC=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_LTLK=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_SOFT=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_SPKOUT=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_TXPRT=m
CONFIG_SPEAKUP_SYNTH_DUMMY=m

           HTH.
