Sorry I have been meaning to email you about this.
I remember you were talking to me off list about this.
I ended up building a debian lenny kernel; you could try that, but it may 
screw something up.

The best option is to probably build your own. I am happy to help you with 
this.
If you want email me off list and I'll help you out. Hopefully we can get 
on im at some stage and I can help you. It really needs im its to 
complicated for email.

Also do you know that speakup is for a full screen console not gnome? So 
just for the command line no graphical stuff like orca.
I use it all the time since I don't really like a gui much.
Also speakup won't work with gnome-terminal.
