Hello,
I installed from the netinst iso under VMWare Fusion. The installation didn’t 
work without sighted assistance. Brltty was just saying: “Screen not in text 
mode.”
Apart from this the install went well. However when I start the virtual machine 
the braille display is not working. It is connected to the virtual machine via 
the host os i.e vmware fusion device management.
When I log in i.e 
root
password 
and then type 
brltty
It is working alright.
But it is very confusing not to know whether I am in the right window, the 
keyboard works etc. etc.
I have a native installation on the same Macbook pro 2011 of Debian Squeeze and 
that is working alright.
So could you please lent a hand in figuring what is actually not working.
My grub.cfg seems to be vanilla, checked with my server’s grub.cfg. I suspected 
that the video mode was not set properly but didn’t find anything suspicious.
I tried to tweak inittab to start brltty as outlined in the distribution guide 
lines but that didn’t do the trick either.
I hope you can help
Best regards
Jeronimo
