Not exactly. Leaving brltty.conf with everything commented out simply means 
that brltty will run using its internal defaults. That means direct USB, 
autodetected drivers, etc. That should all be fine for Aldo.

It sounds to me like removing brltty=ask (or whatever it was) ended up meaning 
something like brltty=no, i.e. his system is now not even trying to run brltty 
at all. I think all he needs is for someone to tell him what to do to tell 
Ubuntu to run brltty without trying to do any configuration for him.

Aldo: I think it'd really help if you stopped trying to reinstall everything 
all the time. I'm certain you don't need to do any of that. All you need to do 
is to work out the little bit of reconfiguration that's necessary to make 
Ubuntu behave the way you need it to.
