How can you make a 3.1 RPM, the current version is 3.0.2 on brltty web site ? Florent I have very magical skillz0rrz! Nah, I contacted the author and he sent me the 3.1 version to make sure that stuff worked before he released it, so maybe I should've done a 0.Xmdk release, but I guess he'll release this one as 3.1 since it worked great:) -Per Øyvind -- Mvh Per Øyvind Karlsen Delonic Technology Group AS Sysadmin, developer, greasemonkey www.delonic.no - +47 41681061

You got a URL? brltty documentation http://dave.mielke.cc/brltty/documentation.html Here is a mini distribution with braille integrated at start http://www.brlspeak.net/ How we have integrated brltty support in a custom tomsrtbt distribution. http://www.culte.org/projets/biglux/marco/bigletom_en.shtml It was an easy task as we just wanted a dedicated floppy. Integrating brltty is essentially a choice of keyboard on a special device, the difficult part beeing that that choice must be easy for a blind person which by definition does have the help of his braille keyboard at that time. We have access to a VisioBraille tablet for tests. And are willing to help. CU CPHIL -- La mort est à Stockolm.

Not familiar with that one. I don't have the hardware to do any of this testing (this guy was using the DecTalk synthesizer), but it certainly wouldn't hurt to look at the docs. You got a URL?

I should know more in a couple of hours or days. Yes, I'm working with a group of blind ßtesters of accessibility products. They are looking for a TTS in french, which doesn't exists for Linux, not even as a proprietary software since ViaVoice is no longer supported. They sensibilized RMS as he came in Bordeaux at the RMLL, and he will try to get some guy to work actively on emacspeak internationalization. having some rpm sure should be a +. Having the brltty activable as part of the install process could also help.
