I think you can just push the printscreen key and you don't have to unload the driver. I dropped off the emacspeak list a few years ago but I know there were a lot of people struggling with getting speakup and emacspeak to work well together. I believe what they were trying to do is have speech-dispatcher handle both speakup speech and emacspeak speech. You might have more luck with this question on he emacspeak list. You'll have to google for that. I don't know where that list is anymore. Emacspeak is a really excellent editor though. I used it on my laptop for years. I didn't know how to compile a kernel or download a kernel or install a kernel. I could install from a rpm package though so I started with emacspeak. When I had to do a lot of text editing on my laptop last summer, I switched back to emacspeak temporarily. I would unload the driver before staring emacspeak. I don't think you have to do that. But emacspeak will do everything you want after boot. You can't use emacspeak to get boot messages but other than that, you can do anything else there is to do on a computer.
