[BRLTTY] can u bail me out again?

[Brian Tew]

Hi Dave,
I wasn't too worried as I can ssh into the pc with my ipad.
And apt-get is sooo easy.

You are exactly right about the /etc/brltty/Input.
A slew of ktb files are in /etc/brltty though.

I am trying to figure how to get them where they belong.
ktb files are the key bindings I hope?

Without knowing exactly how you tried to do it, it's not possible to advise on 
what might've gone wrong. I don't like theorizing as I could easily be wrong 
and end up making misleading statements.

That's definitely something I'd have advised against doing. I don't think one 
should ever deliberately eliminate a decent fallback alternative.

Again, we need to know exactly what you did.

That means that the key tables (probably /etc/brltty/Input/) aren't there.
