Newbie questions about Speakup and debian?

[John covici]

You can use dselect with speakup, but aptitude is better.  For dselect
just park the cursor on (usually if I remember correctly) the last
package before the description and that will be the one they are
talking about.  Aptitude tracks much better.

Also, apt-cache search and apt-get install will help you greatly.

As a side note, ssh is to be preferred over a telnet server.
