To use speech-dispatcher with speakup, you will also need to download, 
build and install speechd_up. There is no tarball release as far as I 
know, so you will have to grab it from CVS and build it yourself.

Go to http://www.freebsoft.org and go into the projects section to find 
out more on how to do this.

The only changes I have made to my speech-dispatcher configuration are 
what is instructed. Adding the AddModule line for the DecTalk 
configuration, and changing the default.

Hope this helps. Feel free to reply if you need more info.
