[BRLTTY] Solved: No braille with Papenmeier braille display on Ubuntu 12.04

[Delaunay Christophe]

Hi Dave,

Many thanks for this suggestion. Since ubuntu did not propose any package newer than brltty 4.3, I downloaded the 4.5 tarball from your site, recompiled it and installed it instead of the original one.

And now, it works like a charm.

Many thanks. Have a nice day. Chris D

There was a problem in 4.3 related to Papenmeier devices connected via USB. Can 
you upgrade to 4.4?
