All of GNOME-2.4 is available in Mandrake 9.2 and cooker, including
(AFAIK) all accessibility software in GNOME-2.4.

$ urpmq -d -r gnopernicus|egrep "(fest|atk|gnope|gnome-mag)"
festival-1.4.3-2mdk
festvox-kallpc16k-1.4.3-1mdk|festvox-kallpc8k-1.4.3-1mdk|festvox-kedlpc16k-1.4.3-1mdk|festvox-kedlpc8k-1.4.3-1mdk
gnome-mag-0.10.3-1mdk
gnopernicus-0.7.1-1mdk
libatk1.0_0-1.4.1-1mdk
libgnome-mag1-0.10.3-1mdk

So, all that you need to do is install gnopernicus, which will pull in atk
(if you don't have it already), festival, a festival voice of your choice,
and gnome-mag:

# urpmi gnopernicus
