Yes, libgnome-speech provides support for Festival,
a free, software-based text-to-speech engine.  So you basicly
only need a working soundcard.

This may or may not be relevant and helpful for you, but
Debian's unstable distribution is currently at a point where
you can install the gnopernicus package and it should
work out of the box, without the need to compile a whole GNOME 2.2 afresh, or
something like that.
