Luke has more tightly integrated speakup into Ubuntu in 10.10.  All
you do is "apt-get install speakup", which is very cool.  He has
proposed to Debian that they incorporate his flow for making this
work.

However, you still need a working synth to use speakup.  I haven't
tried espeakup in Ubuntu 10.10, since I prefer to use voxin with
speakup, which only works through speechd-up.  However, I assume it
still works as before, so try using Storm's instructions to get
espeakup working.  The latest Vinux release, 3.1, is based on Ubuntu
10.10 and uses a modified speechd-up program that makes it work a lot
more like espeakup than the old version.
