Others things I tried : -made a link between /etc/brlapi-key and /etc/brltty/brlapi-key because in the gnopernicus explanations found in the brltty package it is indicated that the brlapi-key must be in /etc/brltty - add the user nath to the dialout group in order that nath can be able to access the /dev/ttyS0 device
Below the error gnopernicus returns : error opening brlapi connection brl_open_device: open device failed ** BRAILLE initialization failed for BRLTTY on port 1 I don't understand what can cause the problem. did I forget to do something else ?
