Re: [orca-list] braille does not work with "tty = 7" in settings.py in arch

[Peter Vágner <pvdeejay gmail com>]

Hello,
What you can see in the settings.py is just a default value. If no other 
setting is found in your user settings file then that will be used.
In order not to mess with installed files you can tweak the user 
settings file...

gedit ~/.local/share/orca/user-settings.conf
In this file look for lines like the following
"enableBraille": true,
and below that add your settings like this...
"tty": 1,

You need to repeat this for all settings profiles you might have defined 
in your orca settings. And pay attention to the json syntax.
This is reported as working by Vojta Polášek also participating here at 
gnu linux support list.

Greetings

Peter
