I reinstalled debian's brltty and had it put in the initrd image and that works pretty nicely. I had uninstalled the svn version. Oddly, now I can get grade two and I know I couldn't before with the debian version. -- Cheryl May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to You, Lord, my rock and my Redeemer. (Psalm 19:14 HCSB)
