The current big problem of Linux is that it hadn't reached the autodetection
level that currently is present on computers from a wellknown fruit-alike
sounding manufacturer, where bluetooth or usb are autodetected out of the
box.
So yes you currently have to enter the xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx address for bt,
that's a way of working I hope soon seeing implemented in the future.

I looked at information on Brltty as regards the Braillenote and
Bluetooth.
I discovered it can be used via Bluetooth only I read something about
having to specify a Hexadecimal address which sounds a little
complicated to someone like myself.
If I eventually buy a USB to Serial adapter to be able to use my
Braillenote under Linux is there a way of easily accessing Braille
without having to type verry long commands all the time?
I know I did get Braille basically working in Linux on a previous PC
which did have a serial port but if I remember correctly I had to do
something like brltty tty0 /d /bn or something along those lines and I
am not sure if I only got it working in a text console and not under
Orca itself.
I think it was Dave one of the Brltty developers who informed me how to
access Braille under Linux on the Braillenote and I am not sure if I got
UK Grade 2.
