So, yea, brltty is definitelly running, as I can see
'Screen not in text mode'. On the standart console,
braille output works fine.
How can I check the brltty logs?

Hello,
While on sonar systemd services

installing. On arch linux you have
to do it all manually. It's why I
have asked too many questions.
Is brltty running?
When inspecting its logs, can you see
something that might help?
Can you try running
orca --replace
in a terminal to see if orca might be
printing something relevant to the standard
output?
I'm afraid this is a configuration issue. And
we need to help you to find what's wrong.
Nope, I don't have any errors. It started
just after I installed Linux. On the old
instance, which was GNU/sonar, everything
worked well.

Have you enabled
brltty systemd
service to start
brltty?
If you are unsure
you can just do
sudo systemctl
reenable brltty
sudo systemctl restart
brltty
At the orca side of things
braille support is enabled
by default. Have you
enabled it? Please open
screen reader preferences
by pressing orca+space,
switch to the braille tab
and please verify if
evething is correct.
If you can't get it to work,
then please try to describe
what works, what does not,
when it stopped working and
similar things that may help
us look for the issue.
Also can you see some errors
when checking brltty status
The file you mentioned exists, I
set chmod to 640, as you
suggested but that didn't help

Hello,
How can I make orca
working with BRLTTY? I
am using Arch as my
distro, gnome 3.26 and
the latest Orca. I have
added my user to the
brlapi group, but that
didn't help.
Check that there exist a
file /etc/brlapi.key,
owned by root:braille and
with perms 0640
If not, generate it. As
root:
cut here
chmod 755
/usr/sbin/brltty-genkey #
maybe done, but won't hurt
/usr/sbin/brltty-genkey
etc/brlapi.key
/usr/bin/chgrp braille
etc/brlapi.key
chmod 640 etc/brlapi.key
I don't run Arch, so maybe
the path to the binaries
differ.
And of course, brltty
should be running at tile
of starting orca.
