You have several choices which probably won't change anytime soon. One
would be to create your own boot disk for slackware. Another is to
compile speakup into your kernel for your curent install of suse. Those
would be the easy choices, with the latter being the most pain free. If
you are looking for some m$ tech to give you the easy answer, you will be
sorely disappointed.

The mind is like a parachute; it works much better when open.
If you're too open minded, your brains will fall out.
