Hi,
I'm running brllty 4.3. I'm going to make uninstall and try a default
configuration and see if that fixes it.
Well it said you're supposed to edit the braille.h in the readme in that
directory, so that's what I did. I'll try that command line and see what
happens after hte default install.
Ah that seemed to fix it. Now, how can I get it to read with a grade 2
braille table?

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.

Hi, I installed brltty on arch with the following arguments:
./configure --with-braille-driver=bl --with-device+/dev/ttS0
For a braille lite 18.
I edited the braille.h so that it looks like this:

#define USE_TEXTTRANS
I set the baud rate on the blt to 9600 and I ran this command::
brltty=bl,ttS0,en_US
And I didn't see anything. Did I forget something?
