Maybe you have a 32-bit system?No, I have a 64-bit system. Just thinking about it later, could it be a permissions/ownership issue?i Just in case, try again, this time typing as root after having copied the file: chown root:root /usr/bin/espeakup chmod 755 /usr/bin/espeakup.
Success, it must have been permissions.I have been switching between X and the console and so far, after a few hours, no crashes at all.
Thank you Didier for your efforts, a long standing issue solved for me, can we get the change included in debian?
