I dont know which operating systems you are talking about, but the ALVA Satellite 570 (and 584) is perfectly supported by BRLTTY. In fact, I use a Satellite 584 since about 2 years. > Digging deeper I found that chromevox uses the brltty library so I > don't understand how Chromevox does braille display can be recognized > and in brltty no Are you saying you failed to get a Satellite working with BRLTTY?

Perhaps it is USB support for the Satellite 570? I have to admit I never managed to use a Satellite via USB, but that is basically because the USB port of my model is dead. Serial works fine, and USB-to-serial adaptors are cheap. P.S.: I wish you wouldn't associate blindness with keywords like "poor" and "salvation". I don't consider myself poor, but I still use a ALVA Satellite 584 every day. -- CYa, ⡍⠁⠗⠊⠕ _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
