Ubuntu doesn't include speakup, so you'll only have access through the orca screen reader which is a part of gnome, the graphical desktop. You can find isos at: http://www.slackware.com and http://www.ubuntu.com You could have found this out through a bit of googleing. > > I will be using Speak Out as the hardware synth. That's supported by speakup, but that's all I can say on that topic.
