I have two Raspberry Pi's that I upgraded from Debian 9 (stretch) to 10 which is Buster. Both seem to have survived the upgrade except for speakup which is now mute. I can get in to them via ssh but sometimes need to plug headphones in to one or the other if I want to use it locally on some project such as looking at our WiFi network with tshark or anything else in which one needs a local console. When I was running stretch on these systems, speakup worked pretty well except for a few idiosyncrasies but now there is no speech at all on the one I am testing and I can assume that the other Pi is probably having the same issue so whatever I do to one will also need to be done to the other. It's been 2 or 3 years since I installed speakup on a Raspberry Pi and I seem to remember a certain download of speakup that works especially well but I don't remember exactly how I got it which is why I am asking the list. Thanks for all constructive ideas. It's hard to believe that the whole Raspberry Pi computer cost less than the Echo GP synthesizer which is the last hardware speech box I used until about 2009 or so. When I was running stretch on these Pi's, I got pretty much the same performance one gets from a full-sized desktop system so I want to not lose that capability now. Thanks. Martin
