I found the problem: I am using my TSI PowerBraille 80 on a serial port
(of course, it can only do serial). As I am using
autodetection, sometimes, the Baum driver seems to
initialize my PowerBraille, instead of the TS driver.
I suggest we remove "bm" from serial autodetection list again,
or prevent the bm driver from autoprobing for non-BAUM
protocols on the serial port.
