The brltty source tree contains a file called "upstart.job" in its "Hotplug" 
subdirectory. Just copy it into your upstart jobs directory. Now, of course, by 
answering this question, I've created two more - which directory, and what 
should the file be called?

I'm not familiar with Ubuntu, but I am familiar with upstart. What I know about 
upstart is that it all depends on which version of upstart you're using, as 
they've changed things around from time to time. Check your system for 
"/etc/init" and for "/etc/event.d". It's probably one of those. Then, for the 
name, it may or may not need the ".conf" suffix - in other words, look in the 
directory to see if the other jobs have names like "brltty" or like 
"brltty.conf". When in Roam, do as the Romans do.
