Granted I am not looking at my post, but I feel sure I said that I already
have a dec talk express and wish to use this.
equally granted I had not read much on Orca, but felt it was more focused
on software not hardware synthesizer support. However no one said anything
so how could I clarify if the question is entirely ignored?
I do not read every speakup post, but know that it will not be supported
in some future distributions of <spelling" eubentu, because of some
kernel factors.
In any case, I am speculating with little information.
The thread began with the discussion of starting up Linux without sighted
help.
This at least suggests that the screen reader would have to be a part of
the distro package for such to happen, which is why I asked about
distributions not screen reader programs.
So I ask again. If one is using a dec-talk express, and wants a fully
talking Linux distribution, who has maintained the best support for this
synthesizer? I am using an original dec-talk express, not a USB model.
Is that better? lol!

You probably didn't get an answer there because your question is based
in enough ignorance that it makes it difficult to answer it. If you
had asked if a particular synth was supported then you would have
probably received quite a few answers. Why do you care which distro
has the best hardware support? Are you thinking of making a synth
purchase based on a distro recommendation for a synth you don't have?
The simple answer to your question is all of them because synth
support is a function of the screen review package not a distribution.
