madhensHello! Any kernel team here who might know about the possibility of compiling Speakup (an accessibility tool which seems like we've compiled previously) into our kernel?12:48
xnoxmadhens:  hi, i think it was mentioned somewhere recently..... but was it not removed from jammy repositories because it FTBFS?!13:19
xnoxdo you have pointers as to where it is, and if it all works still?13:19
xnoxhm i see it is published https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/speakup13:19
xnoxmadhens:  actually i think it is in progress being fixed see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/196770213:23

madhensxnox does this bug also apply to ubuntu server?14:31
xnoxmadhens:  i'm not too sure what you mean. Ubuntu is a single distrubution / package archive, out of which various installer media are built i.e. "Ubuntu Desktop, Ubuntu Server, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, etc." all use the same packages.14:38
xnoxmadhens:  most of them by default use generic kernel flavour, and that's what the above bug report will fix.14:38
xnoxmadhens:  but for example, i don't know if we will apply the same config to many other of our kernel flavours: i.e. cloud-provider specific ones like azure/ec2/google/oracle/ibm, or specialized ones like realtime/fips etc.14:39
xnoxmadhens:  what kernel flavour are you using / care about? the ones that are used by default after installing Ubuntu Server will be fixed.14:39
madhensI'm finding that out. I'm on the SpeakUp mailing list and this was brought up in the discussion thread.15:15
xnoxmadhens:  if output of `uname -r` ends with -generic it will be fixed soon.15:30
madhensThanks :)15:37
