speakup appearing in xorg log question

[Willem van der Walt]

Good day,
I was trying to get my x-windows going which did not work for a while on 
this machine.
As with  many other devices, I saw in the log that it sees speakup as an 
input device.
I have not seen that before and my x-server seem to stop without reason or 
error.

I am now running Ubuntu 18.04 after upgrading.
It was not s smooth upgrade, but I had the X problem before.
Is this normal to see speakup listed as such in the xorg log?
See below:
5976.605] (II) config/udev: Adding input device Speakup 
(/dev/input/event7)
[  5976.605] (II) No input driver specified, ignoring this device.
[  5976.605] (II) This device may have been added with another device 
file.
[  5977.125] (II) Server terminated successfully (0).

Kind regards, Willem

Actually, it seems so, to simulate the down arrow key.
