Hi Jason,

make sure that "symlink" is in your use flags when you emerge the
kernel.  That will make sure that /usr/src/linux points to the new
kernel.

Then, configure and install the kernel.

After that, emerge speakup then set up the boot system to load the
module for your synthesizer, then reboot.

At that point you should have speech.

Thanks,

William
