Even more Debian Squeeze strangeness

[Hermann]

Hi,
do you have a braille display or another access medium for your computer?
In that case I would suggest to completely remove Speakup and all its 
depending files and reinstalling it completely.
Did you compile the kernel or install Speakup as external modules?
In the first case I don't know how to remove Speakup from the kernel, 
but I think that other list members have tips.
