hi all
Storm sent me an old braille sense to test braille support on. It's a
lot more fiddly than I would like, but this is not an orca issue. You
have to change the permissions on the brlapi.key file before orca can
communicate with the display. However there is one issue with this
particular display. It doesn't seem to support contracted braille. When
I attempt to enable contracted braille in orca's braille settings, the
display goes blank and no longer keeps up with orca. If I disable the
option, orca can once again talk to the display. I have had no problems
with the display keeping up, I've used various applications without
issue. I'm beginning to wonder if this is a display issue or a liblouis
or brltty issue? I hope I'm not wasting anyone's time, I'm very new to
braille support so I could be missing something obvious. I did change
teh contraction table to en-uebg2, followed by pressing the ok button.
This is with orca master, completely up to date, and sonar linux, also
up to date, version 16.07.
Thanks
Kendell Clark
