I finally got it starting to work! I don't know if this is possible but would like to kill chromevox inside linux so tdsr is the only screen reader talking, control-alt-z has no effect. I'll try killall -9 chromevox a little later and see if that works. My instance of tdsr on linux is in penguin/dashielljude/git/tdsr and I would like to move what's needed to /usr/local/bin if possible. After that I need to read contents of tdsr and learn the keyboard shortcuts so I can get effective with it. It needed speech-dispatcher python3-pytt and python-speechd installed to come up and work these were in debian repository. Debian freaked out when running pip install -ur requirements.txt along with pip since pip doesn't take the -u switch. debian freaked out when running pip install -r requirements.txt worried I might break system packages. Since all of this happened under chromevox getting more coherent error output than that to share with this group was not possible. fenrir may work on chromebooks I will check that out later. An ideal setup on a chromebook would be to run in real console mode and use tdsr or fenrir and kill off both the terminal and chromevox but I doubt that'll be possible.
