I know and I don't mind, it was actually a nice indicator for me that I 
should go to sleep ^.^

do we mean my main "QWERTY keyboard" or the "braille device" by that?

I have tried, as per readme file of the voyager drivers, to set the 
following option:
--braille-parameters= InputMode yes

or variations of that because the syntax is not clearly defined.
also I added this line to the /etc/brltty.conf as per copying and 
modifying a line above from a different device:
braille-parameters vo:InputMode=yes


all notifying me off an "unsupported parameter" or "missing parameter value"
I hope this helps pointing in the right direction,

thanks in advance for any help,
Kuro Maii
