Installing speakup on Ubuntu 7.10

[Kirk Reiser]

I would recommend getting the latest tar ball from kernel.org and
patch that with the speakup git repository.  Then use the
/proc/config.gz from your currently running ubuntu to get the basic
ubuntu kernel configuration and only answer the newer options when
doing a make oldconfig.  This will get you as close as possible to a
standard ubuntu kernel set-up.  You can then change your grub
configuration to pass the speakup.synth parametre in your grub.conf
for your preferred synth.  You could also just load the speakup_xxxx
module from /etc/modules if having it built-in isn't really inportant
to you.
