[BRLTTY] x11 configuration problem

[acollins at icsmail.net]

Hello Jayson.  There are several reasons why I'm reluctant to upgrade to
wheezy.  First is that I don't like the new desktop, and second is that
puleaudio in wheezy interferes with using speakup.  Oh well, I'm sure
there's an answer other than upgrading the whole system just to fix one
problem.
