Hi, Have you installed xbrlapi on your distro? Is it running? It is this app which handles te braille keyboard input with X. If your keyboard runs features instead of dots, dont you have a functions monde and a typing one? Finally, xbrlapi should handle as well bindings such as ctrl-o. To know binding for ctrl or other function keys: https://brltty.app/doc/KeyBindings/brl-hw-BI32.html

Second question in a week. I'd like to use my brailliant bi32 for input as well as output from, say gedit. this doesn't *appear* to be working. I can navigate ok and something is getting through to orca since thumb2+thumb3 gives a speech response of "leaving flat review". Similarly the braille cursor follows the speech around the screen when I move with the laptop keyboard. I can also interact with brltty since things like help mode and learn mode work. What I can't seem to do is get keyboard input through to gnome. Entering characters has no effect, trying to open a new file with ctrl-o (here thumb3+o) doesn't work etc. since I can get to brltty I've presumably mesed up the plumbing somewhere between brltty and gnome. Anyone enlighten me or suggest debugging options? thanks again Peter |
