Here is how my speech modules are handled: In /etc/rc.conf, I have this line: MODULES=(speakup speakup_soft) In /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf, I have this line: options speakup_soft start=0 and in /etc/rc.local, I have these lines: # extra speakup modules modprobe speakup_ltlk ser=0 start=0 # start talking talkwith soft espeakup speakupconf load I hope something above might be helpful.
