I tried some stuff on my system. Here is what I found.
When I edited the copy of the table I used nano for my editor and it added an extra blank line and so when I tried to copy the table into /sys/module/speakup/parameters/characters it didn't go in because of the extra line. You should have a single new line character following the last entry in the table (nano made it two new lines). However I didn't get any error message with this copying, it just didn't go in. When I corrected the table and then tried to copy it, everything worked fine.
OK, that was it. Reediting the file with emacs did the trick. Note: You can change the config file of nano, so that this additional line isn't put in. I'll do so. One question about /etc/rc.local: Where to put the cp command? Before or after that "exit 0" line? Hermann
