I type really fast. Too fast for eSpeakup apparently, because I was installing Debian 13 in VMWare Workstation 25H2 just now, got to the part where I enter my full name for my user account, started quickly typing my name, got as far as typing "Stu H" before eSpeakup just fell over and died. No problem, I'll restart the VM and try again. The exact same thing happened at the exact same point in setup. This is the state of Linux accessibility in 2026.
@cubic I didn't even need to type fast. I tried to review the screen and it died.
@tspivey @cubic Same here, and this was happening even all the way back in Debian 10
