moin, moin,

I've noticed this a few times: kernel-image-2.4.20-speakup

Finally looked at what it is.

This kernel package contains a Linux kernel patched with speakup,
a screen reader for the Linux console. Speakup currently supports the
following hardware speech synthesizers:
* DoubleTalk PC/LT
* LiteTalk
* Accent PC/SA
* Speakout
* Artic Transport
* Audapter
* Braille 'N Speak / Type 'N Speak
* Dectalk External and Express
* the Apollo2
.
NOTE: We don't claim this drivers to be stable, use them on your own
risk.

Pretty cool. Don't know if other dists have it. These are important tools
for us to have working, so I'm glad to see them working their way into
mainstream.

ciao,
