[BRLTTY] brltty - I'm confused!

Hello again,

I'm still confused. The file brltty.conf does not appear to be present in my
installation. I installed Vinux, which contains orca, but no brltty.conf
seemingly. Braille still not working.

Thanks,

David.

I think David found no /etc/brltty.conf file. As of the last time I
freshly installed brltty (at least a year ago) that file wasn't
automatically installed. I had to hand copy it from the Documents
directory in brltty's build tree. In my case that's:

/usr/src/brltty/Documents/brltty.conf

So you may have to copy this to /etc and check the permissions.

Duh... I'm building the latest development version. David probably has
something installed by the distro or Orca, in which case I'm doubtless
dead wrong. But I think that file is used in console apps at the very
least so it may be needed at least eventually.
