Hi all, I have been searching the opensuse repository for a package called BRLTTY. Its a package that will let a visually impaired user to use linux with a braille display. There is something called opensuse blinux, but that only supports a few braille devices. I have downloaded some RPMs but there are dependency issues. So my question is, any other repository i may check out? I have not worked that much with repositories in the passed, but I know what it is. Any help would be apreciated, many thanks. Christian
I first look in the normal repositories via yast2. If not there, the primary place to look is http://software.opensuse.org/search which searches the full build service. Unfortunately BRLTTY is not found there either. Looking at its home page, the compile is very straight forward. tar -xzf brltty-release.tar.gz cd brltty-release ./configure make make install If your not comfortable doing that, I might volunteer to put it on the opensuse build service for you. Public projects have to be approved, but I can't imagine this one not being accepted.
