Thanks for the information about the goto command and bleep_time. I'll have
to look into what version ubuntu is using. The modules seem to be in the
staging directory but maybe they're packaging a different version for some
reason. It could also be that there's problems with speakup on 64-bit
machines that don't show up on 32-bit machines.

Ok, so when I press the goto command over here and type 24y the cursor
goes to line 24.
Works fine for me.
The goto command was broken in the 3.1.6 sources from 2010, but that was
fixed years ago.
Speakup is now in the kernel's staging tree, so you should be using the
modules distributed with your kernel. No idea how Ubuntu handles this.
I seriously hope they aren't packaging code from 2010.
I also just realized that the version reported by Speakup seems to be
wedged at 3.1.6. It's been there ever since Speakup entered the staging
tree. It was useful back when the Speakup team maintained Speakup, but
I wouldn't rely on it any more.
bleep_time works fine for me, but it only accepts values in the range 1
to 200. Entering 200 gives me a nice long bleep.
