Running Speakup on Ubuntu Lynx?

[Storm Dragon]

Hi,
I think for it to work correctly you'd have to set pulseaudio to run as
a system wide service. You could also try launching speakup and espeakup
or speechd-up after the desktop has loaded.
Probably the easiest way is to install Vinux which has all this stuff
working already but is Ubuntu 10.04 under the hood.
