Thanks for sharing your solution to this. I find it timely, as I'm
considering a Debian install, using either Speakup or an external
terminal as a serial console. If I go with Speakup, my external
doubletalk would be the synthesizer. For the serial console option,
I'd run a terminal emulator on my braillenspeak 640. This box now has an old version of RH,
but, I may want to try another distro, and, Debian looks like a worthy
candidate.
