well, echo "hello" >/dev/ttyS1 does exactly what I'd expect it to do.
the lt speaks the word hello.
why speakup failed to detect is it beyond me.
I've done a dmesg and speakup comes up fine byt the litetalk fails the 
probe.
and echoing a ctrl_a with a question mark directly to the synth doesn't 
yeald anything.
I'm probably doing that wrong in any case. lol.
