Supported synthesizers are accent sa, accent pc,
appollo II., Auddapter, Braille 'n Speak, Dectalk
external (old), Dectalk PC (full length isa board),
Litetalk, Keynote Gold internal PC, software
synthesizers, Speakout, transport, and a dummy module
that can be used with a plain text terminal.

Speakup can either be built in or compiled as a module
by answering y or m. If you answer y here, then you
must answer either y or m to at least one of the
synthesizer drivers below. If you answer m here, then
the synthesizer drivers below can only be built as
modules.
-
+
These drivers are not standalone drivers, but must be
used in conjunction with Speakup. Think of them as
video cards for blind people.

The Dectalk pc driver can only be built as a module, and
requires software to be pre-loaded on to the card before
the module can be loaded. See the decpc choice below
for more details.

If you are not a blind person, or don't have access to
one of the listed synthesizers, you should say n.

In order to use the DecTalk PC driver, you must download
the dec_pc.tgz file from linux-speakup.org. It is in
the pub/linux/goodies directory. The dec_pc.tgz file
This driver must be built as a module, and can not be
loaded until the file system is mounted and the DecTalk
PC software has been pre-loaded on to the board.
