Hi another idea is if it could be done. Have speakup in some way find the x
windows screen reader and start it. Also if the x window screen reader
could talk to the speakup modgel. So if you started speakup with a dectalk
express for example the screen reader would talk threw the dectalk express.
Also if you do not have access enabled speakup trying to start it would
cause it to be turned on. Not sure if this is doable but it seems to me to
be more helpful then just speakup going to sleep.

Subject: Sleep functionality for Speakup with XWindow
All.
I would like Speakup to go into a sleep mode when you switch to a XWindow
console. This sleep mode should tell speakup not intercept any keystrokes
or speak. Once you move back into the text console, speakup automatically
comes alive.
This would resolve problems with key conflicts with XWindow screen readers
and speakup trying to read XWindow screens.
I don't want to have to kill the module for Speakup everytime I have to go
into XWindow. Xwindow is an up coming option for everyone. So lets put in
the ability of doing this.
Sean
