I'm trying to configure something, I really don't care what, but something as a console screen reader. Espeakup and other things seem to conflict with pulseaudio, and gives me errors. Ditching pulseaudio hasn't worked out for me, so it's my understanding that brltty is a solution. I'm just trying to get these consoles talking. That's pretty much all I wanna do, and i"m frustratingly having little to no luck. At the moment i"m logged in to f123 visual. I'm having to ssh into that box in order to do any console work, and that's just not always practical. I'm hoping with all my heart someone can help. Sorry if this reply seems sharp, I'm just not getting anywhere, and hate like everything being stuck.
