Talking ubuntu server install

[John G Heim]

Well, my point is that the ubuntu documentation indicates that at one 
time, software speech was an option. I suppose it's possible that when 
you selected the screen reader option, it then gave you a list of 
hardware synths to choose from. But I doubt that. So I suspect that 
ubuntu must have stopped including espeakup and espeak on it's server 
installation images. I am justasking if anyone ever used it before. We 
switched from debian to ubuntu maybe a year and a half ago and this was 
my first attempt to install ubuntu server myself. I have built servers 
by installing ubuntu desktop and then uninstalling the gui. In some 
cases, I didn't even bother doing that. But even if you remove the gui, 
it's not the same as installing ubuntu server.
