Thanks for such  a richly helpful post.
Since two of the distributions I am considering have images that include speakup, best to research what both offer currently and just choose one.
Much appreciated,
Karen

Hi,

What Kirk says is true in theory, but in practice if you're going to install the operating system by yourself, then your choices will be a little limited.

There are Speakup boot images for the latest Debian and Fedora releases. As mentioned, Ubuntu no longer comes with Speakup included, but I *think* that maybe version 7.04 or 6.10 had it. Not sure if you could install with it, say from the alternate boot CD.

there are other smaller distributions like GRML which can also be installed with Speakup.

I know it has been possible to install other distributions using Speakup in the past, but I'm not sure of the current status of any other distribution currently.

Geoff.
