[BRLTTY] Setting Up BRLTTY

[Dave Mielke]

[quoted lines by Christopher Emery on 2011/04/22 at 20:52 -0400]

>I write you as I like setup BRLTTY on Ubuntu (32bit) 10.10 / 11.04  

I don't personally use Ubuntu, but I believe Ubuntu comes with a brltty 
package. Perhaps someone who uses Ubuntu can confirm this, and can also 
describe to you how you can ensure that you have it installed.

>I using Braillenote (Apex) through USB 

The BrailleNote, to my knowledge, can't act as a braille display over USB. What 
you need to do is to connect its serial port either to a serial port on your 
computer or, via a USB to serial adapter, to a USB port on your computer. In 
either case, brltty would oeprate it as a serial device.

>once I get working with that then I try Bluetooth.  

The BrailleNote can act as a braille display over Bluetooth, but brltty doesn't 
currently have support for doing that.

>I would like for Braille be one as soon as possible.  Can that happen at grub 
>time ?  I not think so but not sure.

No, it can't currently run as the grub prompt.

>God Bless,

And may He bless you, too. My true hope is that He'll bless many readers of 
this list. To that end, may I take this opportunity to remind all that the 
rapture and the Day of Judgement will be on May 21 of this year, which is now 
only 28 days away.
