[quoted lines by Daniel Dalton on 2008/04/29 at 08:19 +1000] >OK, so this is confusing me,
i'm not surprised. This stuff isn't very straight forward. >what should I ask for next time I go to the shop? I assume the USB->Serial converter has a male conector on it. Is that correct? What kind of connector is on the BrailleNote? Didn't the BrailleNote come with a serial cable? >brltty: checking braille device: serial:ttyUSB1 >brltty: checking for braille driver: bn >brltty: initializing braille driver: bn -> serial:ttyUSB1 >brltty: cannot open serial device: /dev/ttyUSB1: No such file or directory >brltty: braille driver initialization failed: bn -> serial:ttyUSB1 >brltty: braille driver not found Exactly as expected if it's now on ttyUSB0. >brltty: checking braille device: serial:ttyUSB0 >brltty: checking for braille driver: bn >brltty: initializing braille driver: bn -> serial:ttyUSB0 >brltty: serial device opened: /dev/ttyUSB0: fd=8 >brltty: timeout after 100 milliseconds >brltty: braille driver initialization failed: bn -> serial:ttyUSB0 >brltty: braille driver not found This (a timeout, i.e. no response) could easily be a serial cable mismatch problem. -- Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | I believe that the Bible is the Phone: 1-613-726-0014 | Ottawa, Ontario | Word of God.
