Ubuntu did indeed have speakup support in 7.x, I think it was 7.0, but
I could be wrong. They dropped it however, along with other distros
when linux 2.6.22 came out, and because they claimed nobody was
willing to help them with it, and they had some sort of problems with
it, though I don't remember what those were. All the grizzly details
are in the speakup list archives though, for anybody who wants to know
more.
