Yes, this is working, because the main instance is running as root. But I have no idea then how I can use this feature in Mate where everything runs in user space and where brltty works best with the -b ba -x a2 settings from above. Do you have an idea?
I’ve disabled Orcas braille output only for Mate-Terminal and use brltty with the settings from above for Mate-Terminal only. Thats so much better then the braille support from Orca and it would be nice to have this keyboard mode, which works for the main instance of brltty, also for this other instances. Do you see any possibility how this can be configured?
Ciao,
