trying to get speakup to work as modules on Ubuntu 9.04

[al Sten-Clanton]

Thanks for replying.

when I've tried this before, modprobe has returned a "fatal" error
indicating that the module, speakup_ltlk, is not there.  I didn't use
modprobe this time, but the find command.

You do not say what module you have tried to modprobe.
I assume you have modprobed some module before looking for the presence of
speakup?
