Debian SpeakUP problems

Hello all,
Just did an upgrade to the latest SpeakUP kernel release and
tiger says the modules are not part of any package. That, and it takes
a bit of time to say what appears on screen, say, when using Lynx or
less when reading a text file, but worst is that when I run irssi to do
IRC, the system completely locks up the keyboard. Can't silence
SpeakUP, change virtual consoles, or even give it the old 3-finger
salute to reboot the machine. Hitting the power switch to power down
doesn't work either, so I think something is locking up the kernel. I'm
running the following:
Intel 686 Celeron
Doubletalk Litetalk synthesizer
Debian Lenny
Kernel version: 2.6.26-1-686
SpeakUP version: 2.6.26+3.0.3+git20080724.dfsg.1-3
Not sure, but dpkg says the modules for kernel version 2.6.25-2
were not removed completely, and I'm wondering if that's the cause or
something, and why tiger is saying I have modules not belonging to any
package. Dunno why kernel 2.6.25-2 for the 686 was removed and also not
removed from the grub menu. Couldn't echo to /sys/modules, but it
didn't crash, and I haven't tried 2.6.25-2 yet. Back to running the
Shane kernel to get this out to you.
