Why wasting??? Since LFS is surely defective (because of linux-2.6.22.x) for blind people that want to use speakup, your unofficial LiveCD has no chioce except being released with an older kernel. And there are patches floating on LKML, so I still hope that it is possible to make linux-2.6.22.x into usable shape later. I take this kernel part, but I need your help in setting up the userspace components and showing me a known working setup. As for the server, I am simply not allowed to make new accounts on ums.usu.ru or anywhere else. However, if you send me patches against the current (or at least recent) LiveCD buildscripts, I will build the CD according to them (even with the old kernel), let you download and try it via a secret URL, and then announce this unofficial CD. P.S. I had a conversation with the brltty maintainer about the GPM problem and will add --disable-gpm to the configure arguments of brltty according to his recommendation. Please tell if this would really help. -- Alexander E.
