Running Speakup on Ubuntu (fwd)

[Littlefield, Tyler]

I think the problem is they've cobbled Vinux together, and now the 
bubble gum acting as glue is finally falling apart.
On another note, why not use espeakup? It works with pulse, no?

Or even on a plain Ubuntu without Orca enabled - I have been trying to do this for a week and have not made any progress. I am not sure whether the problem is pulsaudio or speech-dispatcher or speech-up - but I suspect it maybe caused by speech-dispatcher as I am able to run pulseaudio and speech-up without any error messages. But I get an error about speech-dispatcher being disabled if I try to start that in a console. Speech-dispatcher seems to be set not to run in system mode by default.
