This is very interesting. When I ran "modinfo speakup" I was told that
there was no Speakup modules and got an error. It was the same generic
3.8.0 kernel. The only thing I can think of is that I was running on Amazon
EC2 and perhaps the cloud images for EC2 don't include the Speakup modules,
which would make sense I suppose. Why they would use the same generic
kernel without including the Speakup modules is a little odd to me though
since you can use RDP to get the speech on your local system. Ah well,
thanks for the correction. This is good to know. I haven't looked at any
other images. Now I'm wondering why they include the 3.1.6 modules in the
kernel but they package the 3.1.5 source.

Hi all,
So, as some of you might have seen if you're on the
ubuntu-devel-announce list, beta 1 of 13.04 has been released. Just out
of curiosity, I thought I would give the cloud image a try. Even though
it's for the cloud, it still uses the "generic" kernel, which is the
default shipped with Ubuntu. They eliminated the server flavor. While
I was there, I was wondering if Speakup is still included in staging.
