I am also running debian. I have environment variables set in my ~/.profile
which designate the speech server to use.
Then in my ~/.emacs.d/init.el file I load Emacspeak itself.
The basic steps to any Emacspeak installation are:
First, make sure that the speech server is compiled (if necessary) and
working.
Second, make sure that Emacspeak is loaded when you start Emacs. (You should
also compile emacspeak so that it runs faster, but this isn't strictly
needed).
See the rEADME file and other documentation for details.
