Hello Marco and all, Oh, I apologize if I was wrong regarding the USB support. I am using a Humanware Brailliant 40 braille display which is set default to use the Baum protocol. If I changed it to use the Handytech protocol on my serial port I was able to get braille working. But I will try to do the same on a USB port and see what happens. Blinux should support the Baum variant as well which BRLTTY also supports. I have an older braille display, the Powerbraille 40 from TSI. That is also supported by BRLTTY and should also be supported in Blinux from my opinion. If one chooce to install the latest factory version of opensuse with the help of the LiveCD, how can one later activate Blinux? Best regards, Christian On 2009-03-14 at 12:54 Marco Skambraks wrote:

Hello all, It was some time since I posted to this list, but I have a question. Blinux doesn't support that many braille displays and it's very frustrating that one needs to have a serial display for installing openSUSE. Well, one could use the Live CD, but I prefer braille. When I last checked the repositories I could not find BRLTTY. Has this been added or are there any planns to eventually replace the old Blinux with BRLTTY? why do you say "old blinux" or "old sbl"
sbl is still maintained
and I added many features specially for speech-only navigation
we got very positvie feedback about sbl in conjunction with kbdsniffd
which braille display do you use?
thanks
marco
Is anyone else interested in this as well? Best regards, Christian
