Samuel, do you mean there is no kernel convention for accessing serial ports or there is no speakup support for accessing serial ports according to kernel conventions? It would be really great if speakup could use ttyS# devices, so speakup would work with modern motherboards that do not have built-in serial ports. The way I see it is speakup can only use software speech on modern computers, so unless it can access external serial ports or usb serial ports, there really is no advantage to speakup being in the kernel so far as I can tell...
