Hello again.
I created a log, attached to this email.
I get no braille what so ever.

Kind regards,

Do you get any error?  Did you try to get a log as documented in the
README.first.txt file?

Yes, no need to test all the layers at the same time :)

No, only after that, when you start it.

When brltty starts, it prints its version.  It is also able to read text
consoles.
