Re: [orca-list] problem starting brltty

[lutz kaiser <lutz kaiser gmx net>]

hi

i usw a combibraille with an usb2serial adapter successfull.
first thing to try:
sudo brltty -b cb -d /dev/ttyUSB0 -t de  <return>

-b is the driver to use. cb for combibraille
-d the port the display is connect to
-t the texttable in my case de, "en" would be english.

for you this command should look like:
sudo brltty -b bn -d /dev/ttyUSB= -t en

Note: the usb is in uppercase!

If this works, then :
sudo gedit /etc/brltty.conf
go to the section with the braildrivers,
delete the "#" before the line with braillenote,

go on and change the connectionsdevice
to: serial /dev/ttyUSB0

save it, and restart...
greatings

1. check /etc/brltty.conf
delete the "#" on the line of your display and comment the 
autodetection, these one will not work with a adapter,
