That't what I'm using:

> dpkg -l emacs21 \*speedbar\* | egrep '^ii'
ii  emacs21        21.4a+1-3      The GNU Emacs editor
ii  speedbar       1.0pre3-6      Everything browser, or Dired on steroids

After I read your message I tried to correct some keybindings in the
speedbar-mode-hook, but it seems it is not called:

(add-hook 'speedbar-load-hook
 '(lambda ()
    (ska-speedbar-keys))
    (message "==================== speedbar-mode-hook ====================")
)

This is my *messages* buffer after starting speedbar
with speedbar-get-focus:

Loading speedbar...done
Loading view...done
Type C-h for help, h for commands, q to quit.

I tried "speedbar-load-hook" as well but it doesn't work. All the other
hooks which are configured in the same file get called. I have no Idea
what's going on...

I hope you can help. I am using the keyboard a lot ...

Thanks,
Markus
