BrlTTY is not started automatically

[Simon Bienlein]

Binary package hint: brltty

Hi everyone,

I installed Ubuntu 8.10 with the alternate install CDand my Braille display. After the installation I noticed that BrlTTY is not started automatically. Responsible might be the entry
RUN_BRLTTY=no in /etc/default/brltty.

It would be nice it this problem could be fixed as it is a pity if one can install Ubuntu on one’s own but cannot use it right away afterwards.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards, Simon Bienlein

How is your display connected? Is it USB or serial?

Hi Luke,

my braille display is connected via the serial port COM1.

This bug was fixed in the package brltty - 4.0~svn4301-0ubuntu4

---------------
brltty (4.0~svn4301-0ubuntu4) jaunty; urgency=low

  * debian/brltty.init: Only replace brltty.conf if the md5sum of the existing
    file is the same as what was shipped with the package.
  * debian/rules: Put the md5sum of brltty.conf into the newly installed init
    file.
  * debian/brltty-udeb.prebaseconfig: Enable BrlTTY at startup on the target
    system. (LP: #299989)
