Yes, brltty does have an init script. However, the core Ubuntu
development team had a lot of concerns about BrlTTY, particularly to do
with memory usage, so until a better solution was devised, they simply
prevented the init script from running.
I have been thinking about this myself, and have a few ideas to make
this work better, which will very likely see the light of day in edgy+1.
Henrik, it might be an idea to extend your howto to give info about how
to get Braille up and running with orca. I will discuss this with you
next time I see you on IRC.
