Speakup on the newest Gentoo minimal cd doesn't works with any boot parameters

[John Covici]

What I do is wait till its  booted up, type modprobe speakup_soft
and then type espeakup
and that has worked for me.  It has some problems, but you do get
speech.

But there on talking arch I had to select the right soundcart - it was not the first avaylable - maybe I have to select the right soundcart on gentoo too? But how?
