Getting speakup to run on debian

[acollins at icsmail.net]

Hi.  The Debian live cd for Jessie can run both espeak and orca at the
same time, so I suspect they've recompiled espeak to work with pulse
audio.  However, when I tried an apt-get dist-upgrade, the problem
persists.  I'm having problems getting the debian-installer-launcher to
run from the cd.  It keeps trying to activate the framebuffer, and
hanging.  An interesting catch 22.
