[BRLTTY] brltty and Esytime, on Raspbian Jessie.

[Arthur BREUNEVAL]

Yes, when I plug it up, I see the firmware version: 'Esytime 1.03 
31-03-2014' is printed.

I try to make BRLTTY work with it since about 5.2. But I was under 
Windows - Cygwin so not really in the best conditions. And it was not 
absolutely necessary, so I tried some things sometimes. I tried to use a 
Windows binary that you provide, and to compile myself, with libusb. Did 
not work.

But since I've a Raspberry I try more because it would be really cool if 
it could work instead of accessing the Pi by SSH...

And, like I said, when I plug the Esytime on the RPi, I am able to type 
characters. But after starting BRLTTY, I can not, since I not specify 
anything for USB package. I have to unplug. If I replug, it is the same. 
I cannot type any key. So BRLTTY may intercept the input.

Thanks again for your help!
