[quoted lines by kendell clark on 2016/05/31 at 02:30 -0500] >Can you not simply select the bluetooth device in, say, gnome's bluetooth >settings or in mate's and brltty will pick up on it?
No one has written such an interface yet. >No rich uncles sadly. I wonder why it's always an uncle. :-) Given that theoretically enlighted people are having so few children these days, maybe no one has any uncles - let alone rich ones - any more anyway. And then, of course, there's our passion for killing off all of those unborn children that we do have, but now I'm getting way off topic. >I'm not sure if I can get a government agency to buy me anything especially >since I've gone over to the dark side and use linux now instead of the >"approved" windows and apple but it's worth a shot. Linux isn't all that unapproved these days anymore. >I wish my old braille note mPower still worked, I could use that as a display. >Speaking of which, for braille notes, pac mate, braille lites and such note >taking devices do you need to use the braille terminal mode, or can you simply >connect these devices to the computer? Same as you'd need to do with a Windows screen reader. A brailleNote needs to be in its braille display mode. A PAC Mate's braille display can be removed from the base unit and then directly used. -- Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | The Bible is the very Word of God.
