Yes. The device qualifier is serial:, which tells brltty to use serial I/O. The device is ttyUSBx (was it x or 0). That's specifying a device which would be used were you using a USB-serial adapter. So I'd say that Ubuntu's understanding of what USB means is incorrect. Perhaps it should be offering two options, i.e. one for direct USB and one for using a USB-serial adapter. >but I still can't understand what dropped that absurd content into the .orig >brltty.conf? The first line says "Created by /lib/brltty/brltty.sh", so the answer to your question is the Ubuntu script "/lib/brltty/brltty.sh". >Maybe I must purge then reinstall brltty, hoping it will ask me again for >entering the display type and device: No, don't go through all the trouble of trying that. It isn't brltty which is causing your problem. It's the Ubuntu configuration script "/lib/brltty/brltty.sh". -- Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | The Bible is the Word of God.
