You need to have a hardware synth to use speakup. If you want a recomendation for a linux distribution, I would recomend Slackware http://www.slackware.com or Debian http://www.debian.org>. There is a MP3 file on the speakup ftp server which will help you install debian, located at ftp://linux-speakup.org/pub/linux/goodies/audio-files/ and the files are named debinstall_1.mp3 and debinstall_2.mp3 I think.
