Hi James,
Your assertion is false, as I have installed Linux using Speakup and software
speech many times.  Have a look at grml, found at http://www.grml.org.
Grml is a live CD that can start software speech at boot.  If you're happy
with it, you can install it to the hard drive using the grml2hd program.
