hi all
I've managed to solve the problem where turning on "enable contracted
braille" in orca's settings would cause the display to go blank. It
turned out to be a liblouis problem like joanie thought. For arch users,
the maintainer of the liblouis package needs to add the "--enable-ucs4"
option to the pkgbuild in the "./configure" line, and change the "make"
command to "make -j1". That'll solve the problem. Liblouis needs
updating also, the arch package is on 2.6.5, when version 3.0 is out.
For anyone who uses sonar I've already done this, and you just need to
watch for a liblouis update. Well, to be completely honest the manjaro
people figured out the problem I was stumped and didn't know what to do,
so thanks to them contracted braille should now work. I'm not sure about
vinux users, are you guys on liblouis v3.0 yet? I suspect if not, luke
will push an update to his accessibility PPA so you shouldn't have to do
anything but wait for an update.
Thanks
Kendell Clark
