I haven't yet done an install onto the amd machine I now have with debian speakup but did notice when the intel installed debian speakup disk was used in the amd a couple things happened with speakup. First speech on the doubletalk lt came on and remained on until speech crashed due to a serial card probe of the card the speech synthesizer was on. The gray enter key below the gray plus key on the numberpad did not silence speech with this type of architecture. I thought maybe if I silence speech until it's time to log in I'd get it working but no such luck so far. What's the likelyhood a complete install on this amd machine will clear this problem? The motherboard is an asus and it is an amd athelon 64 that emulates 32-bit mode when I run windows xp on it.
