You need to pull the latest Speakup source from git, change to the src directory under where you created the git pull and run: make modules make modules_install It's still necessary to at least have build-essential and module-assistant to make sure you pull in all needed dependencies such as the full gcc, kernel headers, etc. You could also try ftp to a Debian mirror and getting the latest unstable Speakup source .deb package and installing it manually. That should still work with m-a, but sometimes I've noticed that m-a wants to download the source anyway. Note that none of this is for Ubuntu and hasn't been tested on anything but Debian Lenny and unstable.
