One of the bells and whistles kde hasn't got is anything approaching a screen reader that works as well as orca does in gnome/mate. So for the new users out there who have never seen anything in this life kde is a no go unless I'm quite wrong about this and in that case I really would like to

Hi community, I recently added a ssd and moved the debian system to it. It might be not related to this fact but I now do not see the tty login prompt (CTRL+ALT+F1..F6). I however see it if I boot with sysvinit, so I think it is something in systemd, but I have no idea how I can debug and fix it.
