Hello John, and welcome to the list.

The answer to both questions is yes. Slackware includes speakup in the
official iso images. Ubuntu doesn't include speakup, so you'll only
have access through the orca screen reader which is a part of gnome,
the graphical desktop. You can find isos at:

http://www.slackware.com

and

http://www.ubuntu.com

You could have found this out through a bit of googleing.

That's supported by speakup, but that's all I can say on that topic.
