Hi,
You need to specify the Apollo on boot-time using the speakup
speakup_synth command - look at the readme for the Apollo switch. The
nic should be detected if it is a standard model. It is very easy to
configure duel booting, so you may want to do this.
Andrew.

Hi Andrew,
Thanks for your reply.
I noticed the file on the speakup site. So, do I start with a clean
hard drive and just boot from a cd?
I am using a vigor 2600 plugged in to the onboard network card will this
be found automatically?
How about specifying the appollo?
Thanks
