Well I'm so surprised that probably I'am the one who is missing something:
- the CD was the Desktop version of Ubuntu Hardy 8.04.1, NOT the alternate
- is it OK to choose for braille support during installation? or is that the
beginning of my problems ?
- where is that idea of braille=ask in grub's menu.lst coming from ?
- and finally, why is nothing working, even after having followed the
instructions you and other gave me here ?
BTW thanX all very much for your enormous patience!

Tell me please if we were wrong and if there is another, the good one, way
to proceed ?
