On your Debian system confirm that the package brltty-x11 is
installed, if not then install it.
If you did that already, then I'm out of ideas.

per se. It's being able to control the screen reader. To switch braille tables,
and navigate.

Can you explain more precisely what you are doing? Take Debian for
example, the default console when the GUI is running is #7. If you press
control-alt-f3 for example you would go to #3 which should be a text console.
Are you saying nothing is read by BRLTTY?

Hello Adrian, I have and it makes no difference. I'm currently on
Ubuntu
22.04 MATE LTS and I can read the terminal but nothing in the GUI. On
the other systems it's the opposite. I can read the GUI but not the
terminal. I cannot fathom it. Paul

Hello BRLTTY Developers,
I am still having an issue with the braille keyboard when I do a
clean install of the latest images of Debian 12, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS,
and 23.04. BUT if I install a slightly older image of Ubuntu MATE
22.04 LTS I have keyboard input.
I have also installed the latest image of Slint and I did have
keyboard input during the installation but not after. The kernel
version I currently have installed in 6.1.40.
I do have keyboard input when access the TTY failsafe terminal.
I personally think it has something to do with the latest builds of
BRLTTY when it is 6.4, or 6.5. I have not tried version 6.6. I have
installed these distros on different machines to ensure it wasn't
down to some funky driver issue. And tried five different braille displays.
I've also concluded that it is not a kernel or TIOCS issue. I hope
you will investigate this.
Paul
