Mbrola, Festival, Festival lite

I don't know about Jupiter, but speakup can't be used with software
synthesizers right now. That's mainly because speakup is part of the
kernel, and it isn't to easy/nice to call user-space applications from
within the kernel. Speakup would infact need a a speech synthesizer
written as a kernel module.

No, it doesn't. And if I gather the situation right, it's already
illegal to use IBM ViaVoice, the license ended somewhere around 2001.

No, speakup is just for the linux console, no X support. It wouldn't
make much sense anyway to write a screen reader for X windows as a
kernel driver.
