Good to hear you've got it working. While you didn't ask for it, I can imagine it would be useful, would you like the swspeak script to identify your language and start espeakup with the correct -V option? My idea is that all this stuff should be as transparent to the user as possible (IE. you've set your language, the console may be using your language, so why should you need to set extra for your speech to speak your language). Or would it be better to be an espeakup enhancement to auto detect your language? If I get time I may look at this.
Any thoughts, personally I would have thought espeakup would be the better place although swspeak script may be easier for me to modify.
grml has all the relevant options for handling language stuff, so if espeakup just needs to be started with some special options when using german settings (using lang=de) with swspeak this shouldn't be a big deal, yes.
Michael, you seem to be very good at all the swspeak/espeakup/... related stuff. Are you interested in helping us in better integration of swspeak/espeakup/... at grml? I don't have any active developers working on accessibility in grml (so far I'm doing all that stuff on my own), so I'd highly welcome you as a contributor.
