partitioning a u s b drive

[Rob Whyte]

Hi,

well I use Vinux which is soon changing from Ubuntu under the hood to
Fedora.

I do not believe speakup is maintained anymore but if you install
speechd-up and from the terminal you can run sudo speechd-up you should
be able to use it.
This does work from Vinux not sure about Ubuntu, some Ubuntu users
install espeakup instead.
cheers
