Try Alt-Ctrl-F1, which should take you to an ordinary Linux virtual console and present a login prompt. If BRLTTY is loaded, everything should be in braille from then on. If BRLTTY isn't loaded, you have work to do. I don't know Ubuntu, so I can't offer detailed help. Ubuntu is diverging more and more from the rest of the Linux community, e.g., Upstart instead of Systemd or System V Init, the Unity desktop instead of Gnome/KDE/XFCE, their own display server under development instead of adopting Wayland, etc. As a result, it's going to become harder for those of us who don't run Ubuntu to help Ubuntu users on mailing lists. _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
