It probably depends a bit on the USB interface in use, but in general, there should be no problem. I have at least used a plain USB switchbox on several occasions with success. BRLTTY is fine with handling dis/reconnects on its own. You might have problems with propietary screen readers though, at least I have heard that JAWS doesn't always auto-reconnect a lost USB device. -- CYa, ⡍⠁⠗⠊⠕ _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
