Hello Marco and all, Oh, I apologize if I was wrong regarding the USB support. I am using a Humanware Brailliant 40 braille display which is set default= to use the Baum protocol. If I changed it to use the Handytech protocol on= my serial port I was able to get braille working. But I will try to do the= same on a USB port and see what happens. Blinux should support the Baum variant as well which BRLTTY also supports.= I have an older braille display, the Powerbraille 40 from TSI. That is= also supported by BRLTTY and should also be supported in Blinux from my= opinion. If one chooce to install the latest factory version of opensuse with the= help of the LiveCD, how can one later activate Blinux?
