Hello, Good it seems that it is the same problem as it is for me. I got a response from Mika saying it has now been entered into the GRML bug tracking system http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue610 Is this problem specific to GRML or is it generally a problem for speakup as modules? IE. Is GRML really the correct place for this to be corrected?
