I still don't understand the maning of that manoeuver: my Alva Satellite is
an USB, NOT "seerial to whatever", so I don't understand the meaning of it;
I only see things in brltty.conf who are not usable by real usb displays,
nor from serial displays nor from whatever display.

But I wrote your message where you todl me about how to get rid of the
infernal message at boot time: that's also something I absolutely not
understand the meaning: why should he ask for something who's already
configured and reconfigured ? why not refering to Gutsy's way of working +
correcting the bugs caused by the /Etc/init.d/brltty or other script who
still was overwriting your brltty.conf ?

Whe only way to do this and to fix is, is by following the way Debian does.

Or as Dave said a few mails ago, you have to make more proposals in the F5
or so.

But it would be nice to delete the braille=ask question from grub: taht's
the way a standing alone blind could hem himself at that moment: I got
chance that I got some sighted person sometimes here.

OK Luke there is no perfection in this world, but the right solution is the
one who causes the lesser problems for a great cathegory I think so.

Thanks,

Grtnx,

Aldo.
