Emacspeak discussion list

Problem is, there is no ~/.config/emacs/init.el this may be the
problem.  Everything I have is in  ~/emacspeak.  Just to make sure I
did a make clean, make config and make.

I ram emacs and there is nothing in the .config or .emacs.d related to
emacspeak.


I  have never had anything about emacspeak in  ~/.config, so not sure
what is happening.
