Hi Laurent:  The appropriate settings are almost the default, 9600 n,
8, 1 with hardware handshake.  The unit gets best results with the
chord-s speechbox mode.

If that doesn't work automagically you can specify speakup_ser=1 for
com2 on the boot line after typing linux.  So for example at the boot
prompt you would type:

linux speakup_ser=1

You use 0 for com1 and so forth.

We have rewritten parts of that driver in the cvs code but I don't
suggest you use that until you have a good understanding of linux
first.

good luck
  Kirk
