[BRLTTY] usb_to_serial

[Daniel Dalton]

Hi,

Here is what I last have tried: plugged the serial cable that came with 
the 
braille note into the usb to serial cable and pluged the usb end into my 
usb 2.0 port and the serial end (from the braille note serial cable) into 
the braille note. (as someone suggested.)

Still no luck.

Thanks for all the replies, but I don't think my cable is supported since 
ntohing has worked and I get the same errors usually...



So I had a quick look on ebay and found this:

QQitemZ140230142593QQihZ004QQcategoryZ41995QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZView
Item

Will this item work for what I want? Is it supported by linux and will it 
work with the braille note allowing me a usb to serial solution?
Also note that I have a mail port on the
  braille note serial port...

So should I buy this one and try it out? Sorry, but I don't understand 
this stuff very well and obviously I can't use my computer easily, 
currently trying to use speakup.

Thanks for any help,
