Hi Greg, *smile*, thanks for the company line, ... So, no seriously, I'm not kidding, *grin* Yes, I know I can do it that way ... In fact, I am doing it that way, but it doesn't answer the question. Thanks for the response, and the smile, though.

Could this be possible? Yes, it could. Netbsd, and probably freebsd as well allows you to install the system via a serial console. Once that's done, you can use ssh on a speakup-enabled gnu/linux system to access your freebsd box, thus being able to use speakup in freebsd (grin). Seriously though, yes, I know this isn't exactly what you meant, but not having speakup run in user space is not a big obstacle to using freebsd, provided that you have at least 2 computers that you can use, one to run gnu/linux, and the other to run freebsd.
