Instructions should be on the installation CD on how to start Ubuntu with Speakup. How they handle it from there, or if like Debian Squeeze (which I use) and doesn't yet have any speakup modules packages showing in an apt-cache search yet, is another story. For Debian, SpeakUP is probably already in the kernel, and only needs to be added to /etc/modules with the name of the module, ie: speakup_ltlk for the LiteTalke hardware synthesizer, or in /etc/rc.local, where you would add: modprobe speakup_soft espeakup speakupconf load With the previous /etc/rc.local setup, you would need to apt-get install both the espeakup and speakup-tools packages for use with SpeakUP's software speech synthesizer. Again, I'm not entirely sure about Ubuntu, but the instructions should be either on the installation CD, or on the Ubuntu website. If they don't, then that's why I went with Debian. Hope this helps, Michael
