a slackware 9.1 question

It looks like the problem is that you're assuming that slackware 9.1
comes with cvs speakup, which it doesn't. You want to add

speakup_synth=bns

to your append line in /etc/lilo.conf, type lilo, and reboot, and away you
go. If you have no way of doing this, then when you get to the lilo
prompt, which you should get to by default if you haven't messed with
your lilo.conf after the install, type:

linux speakup_synth=bns

, and you'll get the same result as above, which will now allow you to
modify your lilo.conf while you have speech.

Hth.
