Re: [orca-list] Are list memberws using different distros

As I remember you can just run brltty at the bash prompt on the standard 
install CD (it was either the install CD or the rescue CD, but it has been 
so long since Ihave used either of those media). As a note: on the installed 
system, for some reason brltty is part of extra and so is not installed by 
default.
