I'm trying to get the Knoppix linux-live-cd
http://www.knopper.net/knoppix/
working with a Braille device, Papenmeier EL80, but I can't get the
parameters right. Does anyone have any experiene with the use of Knoppix
and a Braille device?

I've also tried the SuSe 8.1 live cd, but I could not get the Papenmeier
EL80 to work: it is recognised during boot, and I'm offered text-mode
install, but there is no "life" in the Papenmeier EL80. Is there any
special arguments that I should use when booting?

I can only use such live-demo-cd, until I know if I can get the Papenmeier
EL80 to work from boot with linux.

FYI: the Papenmeier EL80 belongs to a 12 year old girl, and if I can get
this to work with linux, then she will be able to use unknown things such
as mail and internett.
