You can either boot a speakup-enhanced kernel image from a floppy, or
from your boot loader.  I use the boot loader called lilo.  an example
entry from my "/etc/lilo.conf" is below, for your entertainment :).
Note that, in order for this to work, you have to have compiled such a
kernel image, according to the instructions on the speakup web site,
and those found in the kernel source "README" file.


Good Luck,

###   This image boots when an "l" 
###  is typed at system startup...


image = /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.9-13custom
label=litetalk
alias = l
read-only
root=/dev/hda2
append = "speakup_synth=ltlk"

Hi.
You do this by adding an append line to /etc/lilo.conf.

Is there software for Linux like Sound gorge?  Create soundfiles with a 
microphone and mix in sound effects and mp3 files and the like?  A little 
production studio in my computer?  Grin.  Who knows what mischief I could 
get into?
