In /etc/default/grub remove splash from line 10. In /etc/default/grub change "" to "3" in line 11. In line 19 of /etc/default/grub uncomment line. In line 33 of /etc/default/grub uncomment line. Then run grub-update. Beyond that apt install espeakup speakup-tools. Then as root systemctl enable espeakup.service. Then reboot. To get to graphical interface run telinit 5. Need to reboot to get back to console login.
