[quoted lines by kendell clark on 2016/07/30 at 02:41 -0500] >I've been getting a couple of questions from sonar users about getting >their braille displays from humanware working with brltty. I know brltty >supports the brailliant displays, but does it support the newest one, >called the brailliant bi?
Yes. Note, though, that the older Brailliant models use the Baum driver whereas the newer Brailliant BI models use the HumanWare driver. >They say when they plug it in nothing happens Please ensure that, for a Brailliant BI, 5.4 is being used. There are some very important fixes in 5.4 for the HumanWare driver. >and I'm wondering if maybe it's a bluetooth display. Brltty is using it's >stock config file, which autodetects the display, Brltty, by default, only detects USB devices. >but does brltty autodetect bluetooth displays? If not, would it be possible to >add this? Yes, and no. No, because the address of a Bluetooth device can't be guessed, so, therefore, must be explicitly specified. Yes, because, if the address is specified, brltty can detect which type of braille device it is. -- Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | The Bible is the very Word of God.
