did you do modprobe speakup-soft.synth yet? That should not have
returned an error if espeakup was installed with all dependencies.

Subject: Re: I need to get speakup to wirk. Suggestions?
I'm trying to use speakup with espeakup.
Espeakup says: "Unable to open the soft synth device: no such file or
directory".
I thought I'd installed speakup, but typing it gives "command not found".
I just downloaded a speakup tarball (that took some digging). Running
the makefile produces two errors that I don't understand.
What is speachd-up? Do I need it in addition to speakup and espeakup?

Hi,
Do you use espeakup or speechd-up, or some hardware synthesizer?
If you use espeakup or speechd-up, kill all instances and start it from the
graphical terminal with sudo.
Then, switch to some text console and log in - you probably won't have
speech on the login prompt.

I'm using Orca on Ubuntu MATE. I want to use several terminal
applications because I'm unsatisfied with the desktop apps I currently
use.
Orca's terminal support sucks.
I've installed speakup, but it never runs when I switch to terminal.
Any suggestions for fixes I might try? Thanks.
