Hi. Adding speakup_dtlk to /etc/modules will get the speakup module loaded automatically during boot. You won't get speech as early as you will if you had the synth driver in the kernel, but it should start talking early in the boot process. If you want to use the help system for speakup, you might want to also add speakup_keyhelp to /etc/modules. Hope this helps.
