problems gettingspeakup kernel patch to work with debian kernels

[Deedra Waters <dmwaters@linuxpowered.com>]

I've been fighting with this for the past couple of days, and slowly
getting it to work, but I'm stuck on this one.

When I go to build the kernel I get theese errors.

make -C speakup
make[3]: Entering directory
`/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.20/drivers/char/speakup'make all_targets
make[4]: Entering directory
`/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.20/drivers/char/speakup'cc -o genmap genmap.c
./genmap speakupmap.map >speakupmap.h
can't open ../../../include/linux/speakup.h
make[4]: *** [speakupmap.h] Error 1
make[4]: Leaving directory

make[1]: *** [_subdir_char] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.20/drivers'
make: *** [_dir_drivers] Error 2


I know that it's looking for speakup.h, and I know that it's looking in
/usr/include/linux for it,but what I can't figure out is why isn't it
there, and if it's something I've missed, I'm not really understanding
what I'm missing.

if I could get some help or ideas with this I would really appreciate it.
