Ok well I think you need to patch the kernal and then compile the kernal 
again I think.
Do you know that speakup is just for the terminal?
All instructions and the speakup patches can be found at.
linux-speakup.com

BTW How are you finding ubuntu. What problems are there. Are you dual 
booting? Is it pretty accessible?
I know this is a little bit off topic for this thread but I am 
considering using ubuntu.
Maybe I should try the livecd...
