[BRLTTY] HID and refreshabraille

[Devin Prater]

Hi all. I have a refreshabraille 18, with the panning buttons stuck. I'm
not in a position to get a new one, so I'd love to know how I can get
brailletty to work with it. I'm running sonar gnu 2014.1. The update
manager says it can't lock the manager or something like that, and
something about transactions, so I suppose I'd have to go with the command
prompt. Sudo apt-get update brltty doesn't work though. What am I doing so
wrong for Linux to always be frustrating?
