In generla the above spes should work but as Jason suggest, do upgrade to
at least gnome 2.20 orca 2.20 or maybe even 2.21 (not sure it that'll
work) and brltty 3.9

hey people,
has soneone tried thre more recent cd-image with usb-displays?
I noticed that the recent cd-images have the accessibility-stuff in them
again.
Wonder if the usb-stuff would work with a kernel 2.6 when there's not uet
3.5 or 3.6 version of brltty on the image.

hi,
I'm glad to build my own install-stuff.
However, how can I make a custom udeb from the newest brltty to include in
the install?
I need 3.5 or 3.6 because of the userspace-usb support for my
brialle-display.
Any hints would be welcome.

i.e. I'm runnign my new installs all with reiserfs becaues of the
journaling and it's faster then ext3fs whihc has journaling too.
JFS would be the best, but it isn't quite completely supported yet AFAIK.

better use java then. Although in bytecode it still is somewhat slow,

generally the
t you could do is add append="console=ttyS0" ot the relevent
section in your lilo.conf or even out of a section to make it a global
option.
This ensures you don't have to type it on the commandlien anymore.
For the most part the kernel-image should do everything else.
Maybe you ne

depending, if you run base-config during the install befor rebooting.
debian-install seams to take care of the serial stuff from a serial

final test:
- changed the rcS file according specs
- changed line 21 in the inittab to reflect tty instead of null
- kept line 25 to udbootstrap
The screen blinks twice as it did before
no text
nope this ain't working.
It seams another fix is needed.
any suggestions?
