[BRLTTY] Communicating with a cdc-acm device

Yes, it is a braille device and there is no driver for it because it is a
new device that we have designed.

Are you doing this on Windows or on Linux?


I am doing this on linux.

I strongly suspect that the configuration number should be 1.

Actually I have tested both configurations 0 and 1, and both interfaces 0
and 1, But nothing changes.
Here is the device descriptor from *lsusb *output :

As you see in device descriptor, it has two interfaces (master and slave),
interface 1 has two endpoints, endpoint 4 (OUT) with address 0x04, endpoint
3 (IN) with address 0x83. I can communicate with the device in a simple c
program using libusb API with these endpoint addreses.
