An important question on emacs

["Krishnakant Ramesh Mane" <manekk rediffmail com>]

hello all the friends at the list.
This is Krishnakant Mane.  I have been mailing to this list even 
before but I have now changed my email account.  Never the less I 
want to get one question solved I really wonder how can I read the 
man pages inside linux with the help of emacspeak.  I had asked 
this question even before and I know that after pressing m-x and 
typing man and enter it will ask me to type the name of the manual 
I want to read but this is not working in my case.  What can be 
the problem what is the actual way of doing this (in case I am 
doing wrong).
Thanks,
