Well one quick way is to do this 
Apt-get install eflite flite yasr 
This will install yasr your all perpus screen reader eflite a flite
server for emacspeak and flite.  
Update your kernel using aptitude to install 2.6x.  
Yasr is not hooked in to your kernel and you never need to worry about
losing it.  I am talking to the maintainer of the debian package for
speakup to see if he is willing to update the kernel image and to
provide a source package for speechd-up.  If you are willing to work
with source packages instead of just the debian ones let me know there
is a good users guide and a howto on speakup and software synthesizers
are covered in there.  As a novus user my self I found it some what
difficult to create the package only to find that the speakup image does
not have the device in it.  So you are going to have to get a kernel
source and then the speakup patch from cvs and make your own kernel.
Quite a takes for a new user.  I like emacspeak better then yasr but
yasr is easier at this point with debian to get talking.  
Another easy one is emacspeak 
Type this to get emacspeak and emacs21 
Apt-get install emacspeak-ss 
This will get emacs21 emacspeak 17.01 quite old and the emacspeak
server.  
I got in touch with the maintainer of this package to see if he would
update it as well.  
Another good option for emacspeak is speechd-el 
To get it type 
Apt-get install speechd-el
