That's in fact totally absurd to ask for something regarding accessibility during boot time while the system ignore if the person is able to see or hear it.

I tried it yesterday with usb: lowercase, and that was the first time I got braille; + I juste checked the backup of brltty.conf file and confirm that USB is mentionned there as USB: uppercase (was not working). > Which table? You can specify the table with either the -t option or the > text-table line in brltty.conf. That's a point about the discussion around "following the default locale of the first (/ system-wide) account: in Ubntu Gutsy there was the us table mentionned in the brltty.conf, now there is nothing, but it seems it is us by default. IMHO an .orig (well commented) file should help for dreminding us how to do things we are only doing each six months or sometimes more... BTW my sighted helper totally ignore anything about accessibility/brltty questions, so I miss a simple template or a good commented basic file or so (maybe this is not an important request but it may help !)
