It means that the build procedure couldn't determine which precise revision of
brltty 5.2 was being built. That occurs when brltty is
Hi,
When brltty starts up here it says:
brltty 5.2 rev unknown
The question is, what is unknown?
Might that influence the working of brltty?

Hi All,
I am running a ubuntu 12.04 x64 with a focus 40 usb braille display.
Currently I have brltty 4.3 rev 5477 installed.
Is there a newer version which supports braille input and can be
compiled and installed on this distro?
If my version is the latest awaylable build, can the rockers b
Dear Henk,
As brltty works on 64 bit windows, I think this way it will become
possible to use an old braille display with 64 bit version of Jaws of
course with some limitations.

Hello,
Just curious, why would you want to do this?
Most older braille displays don't have 64-bit drivers, so your solution,
if possible, would only work on 32-bit windows. If you just want to
experiment, you could just as well use JAWS 10 or earlier, which don't
require the driver being sign

I'm not a C programmer but from what I know this is unnecessary. If brltty
can drive your display in a Windows environment (under Cygwin for example)
you can put Jaws braille to sleep whenever Cygwin gains focus so brltty can

you can look at this page:

I think it is currently impossible to create a driver without having it

costs $9000 for the first year.

Hello,
I think that would be impossible. Freedom Scientific, for security

own, and it's fantastic i
Hi all,
I am Istvan Velegi, a 21-year-old student from Hungary. Currently I
learn IT engineering at a local university.
As I learn programming, I am interested in how it would be possible to

Well, I have been trying to compile BRLTTY as well but with no luck.
There are still dependency issues so i am now seriously thinking about
switching back to Ubuntu again if I cant get this to work.
I will send a new email with the error messages i get when i try to compile it.
Best regards

The Voyager driver code is vo, and its device is usb: (yes, the trailing colon

The brltty= syntax is only for telling an installer what to do. Also, brltty
doesn't autodetect serial ports. Try invoking it like this:
brltty -bal -dserial:ttyS0
What model of Alva do you have?
