>Well I couldn't get 5.6 to work, so I uninstalled 5.6 

Without knowing exactly how you tried to do it, it's not possible to advise on 
what might've gone wrong. I don't like theorizing as I could easily be wrong 
and end up making misleading statements.

>and 5.3.1 both 

That's definitely something I'd have advised against doing. I don't think one 
should ever deliberately eliminate a decent fallback alternative.

>and recompiled 5.6 as root. It still did not work. No braille came to my hims 
>u2.

Again, we need to know exactly what you did.

>Sooo I did make uninstall then apt-got brltty again.
>Yikes, now is says " no key bindings " and my braille keys have no effect.

That means that the key tables (probably /etc/brltty/Input/) aren't there.
