[BRLTTY] Brltty not working on Arch

[Vojtěch Polášek]

Hi,
Okay, I have made some progress. Now I know, how to use apitest :-D.
I compiled apitest from git repo and used it to test Brltty 4.5 on arch,
I hope it doesn't matter.
This is what shows
./apitest -b localhost -a /etc/brlapi.key -d
Connecting to BrlAPI... done (fd=3)
Connected to localhost using auth /etc/brlapi.key
Showing dot patterns
BrlAPI exception: Invalid packet on Write request of size 99 (16 00 00
00 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 28 00 00 00 2b)
You may wish to add the -ldebug option to the brltty command line in
order to get additional information in the system log
Neúspěšně ukončen (SIGABRT) (core dumped [obraz paměti uložen])
Here is an excerpt from the log, which I send as an attachment:

2014-04-22 at 12:34:46.009 freeing tty 0x02e00006

Do you know what could be the problem? I am using Czech braille table.
Thanks,
