No. We'd need a log to analyze. There's no point in guessing when no other users (that we know of) of the same driver aren't having such a problem. >Also, I would still liike to start it as root, where would I put and >what is the syntax of the parameter I'm not sure how you're starting it now. If it's already not starting as root then you'll need to figure out what to do within your own environment. If, however, it's starting as root and then dropping to being unprivileged then you could add the -z - --stay-privileged - command line option. This can also be specified within brltty.conf. -- I believe the Bible to be the very Word of God: http://Mielke.cc/bible/ Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | WebHome: http://Mielke.cc/ EMail: [email protected] | Ottawa, Ontario | Twitter: @Dave_Mielke Phone: +1 613 726 0014 | Canada K2A 1H7 | ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ http://mielke.cc/xmother.html (Letter from a Feminist ex-Mother) _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
