As far as I know we really don't have any way of testing on systems that aren't i386 or amd64. So there's not any real way of knowing if Speakup works on other architectures.

[1] http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=177794 Is there any possibility at all that speakup could be moved into user space as the bug suggests? I feel that if we can go into user space this will b a better approach.
