1) This differs from what we have discussed on IRC.
On IRC, you said that there is a "$brltty" variable that gets examined by the
brltty process if it is started without command line arguments. Also, are you
sure that only one command line argument is needed? Linux kernel cannot pass
environment variables with space from the command line.
2) ISOLINUX doesn't print anything to the serial port by default, so there is no
clue thet brltty is available. ISOLINUX has to be either rebuilt or reconfigured
(too lazy to check the manual). Also be sure not to confuse serial mice and modems.
3) The serial port is configured out on ppc (it caused hangs earlier, did this
get fixed?), so brltty is currently useless there.
