Cris,
	I tried this.  I am now actually reading the user manual for
speakup.  However I still have not gotten it figured out.  I will take any
suggestions that anyone may have.  Thanks.
Scott

Do you have speech-dispatcher and speechd-up? Wouldn't you just:
modprobe speakup_sftsyn; speech-dispatcher -d; speechd-up -d ?

HTH.
