Bug Description
I have connected a Baum Super Vario braille display to the USB port of my laptop. When I boot feisty I hear the tone telling me the the display is attempting to initialize just as the GDM login is appearing. After about 2 seconds I then hear the tone telling me that the connection to the display has been terminated. At no point do I ever see data on the braille display. If I then switch to a terminal and attempt to start rltty manually I repeatedly hear the initialization and shutdown tones until I kill the brltty process. This system is configured with all stock feisty packages, I have not attempted to build brltty from svn. Manually. Starting brltty with this braille display works with out a problem on both of my edgy systems. This problem happenns with multiple installs of the feisty daily live CD including the one from January 20th. Please let me know what log files I should include here to help resolve the problem.
Mike, a copy of /var/log/syslog from when this happens might be useful.
