I have a 2.6.11.7 kernel running with speakup. I decided to use the kernel.org sources instead of the Debian source. Make-kpkg worked fine for building it. There is a Sid kernel-source-2.6.11 available, but I haven't tried to patch it with speakup or build it. It sounds like the make-kpkg script is looking for some files it expects and isn't finding them. Unfortunately, I don't know what files might be missing. You might want to check and see if the kernel-tree package got installed. It should have been installed with the kernel-source, but you never know. Hope this helps.
