A small typo. The file actually is: /etc/xdg/brltty/brltty.conf Brltty looks in the /etc/xdg/brltty/ directory for all override files. >However, since I usually hate it if people ask specific questions and >receive answers that tell them they actually want something different, >here is how you'd actually change what systemd runs: The brltty systemd >service file is usually found in /lib/systemd/system/brltty.service. >If you want to override settings from it, you can use a similar mechanism >as described above for brltty.

I'm quite sure that - as Mario stated earlier - what you probably really want to do is define your settings in /etc/xdg/brltty/brltty.conf. -- Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | The Bible is the very Word of God.
