To answer the other portion of your query, to move from a gui console
to a text console just type control-alt-f1 or any other of the
function keys from 1 to six. You can learn to kill off gnome and gdm at
a later point if you find you're happy using console mode.

Hi Timothy,
Welcome to speakup :)
There is http://linux-speakup.org/spkguide.txt which should help.
Basically you need two kernel modules loaded. One is speakup.ko and
the other depends upon which synthesizer you want to use. So for
example for Apollo you'll need speakup_apollo.ko. You can also use
software synth speakup_soft.ko if you don't have a hardware synth. All
supported synths are mentioned in spkguide linked above.
If it's a hardware synth then the two kernel modules is all you need.
If it's speakup_soft.ko then some user-space text-to-speech software
will be required. If you can explain where you're getting stuck then
we can help more :)
Cheers!

Hi, i recently installed Kali onto an old laptop. I would really like
to just run Kali in console mode and completely ignore the GUI .To do
this, I know I need speakup. I found a couple refferences in the
archives for this mailing list, but I couldn't get it to work with the
instructions given. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get
speakup running on Kali, as well as how to switch from Gnome desktop
to just a console?
Thanks,
TJ Breitenfeldt
