Hello, I have no experience with Braillelite devices, so can't help there. This said, I find it strange that you need to edit a header file (haven't needed to do that in about a decade): what version of brltty are you using? Also, beware of typos in command-line, they can be an absolute bane while trying to set up braille output, at least they have been for me at times.
With a sound default of brltty installed, I'm pretty sure all you should need to do is: # brltty -b bl -d /dev/ttyS0 -t nabcc I'm sure Braillelite users will fill in the details. hth, S.M.
