Kali installed a desktop by default and I did not get the option to not install a desktop like in debian. The system did not talk when I booted it up after installation. No braille either though I used both braille and speech during install. I switched to a text console and fired up brltty and configured it to start at boot time using systemctl. All services is disabled by default on kali. Ok, so far so good. I have braille now which makes it easier to type commands and read output in the text console I then found that espeakup is in fact there but not loaded at startup. speakup and speakup_soft kernel modules is not loaded at boot up either. Loaded both speakup and speakup_soft and started espeakup and wolla; it's speaking. Still no speech in the gui though but I don't care about the gui. I hope I can perform all hacking and penetration testing from the text console anyway. If I have to use orca and the gui I will have a problem since kali will be running in a VM on a server and I don't know about a way to run X and gui apps remotely in a accessible way for me that depend on a screen reader. Currently I'm running kali on my own vm at home where I now have both braille and speech on the text console and I can access it from all hosts on my lan via ssh (including over the internet).
