Yay, progress! I'm closing this as fixed since the problem is clearly much reduced, and I'm opening a new bug 83939 for the two issues you mentioned. ** Changed in: linux-source-2.6.20 (Ubuntu) Status: Needs Info = Fix Released -- USB braille display no longer starts with brltty

Thanks. OK passing it over to the kernel team. It seems the kernel disables the USB device just after brltty tries to use it. See the last line in the log clipping below: Feb 1 10:50:00 laptop brltty[5861]: starting. Feb 1 10:50:00 laptop brltty[5861]: BRLTTY 3.7.2 Feb 1 10:50:00 laptop

Also, try booting to a 2.6.17 edgy kernel with feisty userspace and see if that fixes it. -- USB braille display no longer starts with brltty https://launchpad.net/bugs/80892 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Can you unload the ehci_hcd driver and see if this helps? It looks like brltty is causing some USB resets, or is resetting the device...I'm not sure this is a kernel bug, because it may be brltty doing something wrong to cause these resets. ** Changed in: linux-source-2.6.20 (Ubuntu)

If you can give me more detailed information on what you are asking I can give this a try. Note that the same braille display and the same version of brltty work just fine on an edgy system. -- USB braille display no longer starts with brltty https://launchpad.net/bugs/80892 -- ubuntu-bugs

Run: sudo modprobe ehci_hcd After that, see if restarting brltty works. Also, please see about install linux-image-2.6.17-10-generic from edgy, and booting that on the feisty system. I understand that the version is the same on edgy, so it's unlikely to fix the problem, but there's always the

The sudo modprobe ehci_hcd made no difference. When I tried to restart brltty I got the same result. I also just tried the latest brltty sources from head with the same result. If it would help, perhaps I could allow you to ssh into a machine that exhibits the problem. I'm normally not into

An interesting new development here. Within the past half hour a new version of brltty was uploaded and added to udev to support the auto detection of braille displays on boot up. Braille now starts successfully for me. A couple small problems remain though: 1. brltty attempted to start

Hi Mike, ubuntu-desktop is just a meta package that causes other packages to be installed/removed. You can safely remove it for the purposes of testing whether this works. It won't remove the entire ubuntu desktop as such. However for the long term it will cause issues with upgading, so it should

Hi Henrik, Thanks Mike. Hm, interesting looks like it's interfering with Network Manager somehow. -- A new feature in Feisty. I'll add a bug task for NM so the maintainers of that will have a look. In the meantime, Mike: could you try uninstalling network-manager and see if that helps?
