Problems attempting to set up Speakup with a DECtalk PC2.

Hi all
I have recently obtained a DECtalk PC2 card, and have successfully set 
it up and used it under Windows 98 with JAWS. I am now attempting to 
make it work with Speakup under Linux.

I copied the dec_pc to the suggested location, and ran dtload -v. I get 
the following output:

testkernel got dec
Loading kernel of 26438 bytes ( 77 relocs )
    cs:ip == 0040:0010   ss:sp == 07eb:0200
status -3

However, upon loading speakup, I am informed that the device, while 
found, appeared to have no firmware loaded.

I try running dtload again, and get the following output:

testkernel got dec
Loading kernel of 26438 bytes ( 77 relocs )
    cs:ip == 0040:0010   ss:sp == 07eb:0200
card is ready
dt_loadmem: addr = 00000400 size = 26438
waitmode p=c001 s = 1000
status -9

When I attempt to load speakup and the decpc module a second time, the 
system completely locks up hard, and I have to press the reset button.

I have tried the firmware that came in the speakup tarball, and the 
firmware off my install disk, which is 4.2C. Suggestions are welcome.
