Re: debian-installer and braille table selection

Hi Samuel,



Thanks so much for your fast removal of the bug :-).



As I read on http://www.debian.org/devel/join/newmaint.en.html, you
might not be an official developer. Have you talked to the Debian
developers about your changes? Mario Lang reads along in this list as
far as I know. Maybe he can comment on this as he is the maintainer of
BRLTTY.



Best Regards and many thanks for your effort.

Simon

Mario said a few months ago that he would be away for a while.

To clarify one point, he maintains the Debian BRLTTY package, but not BRLTTY
itself. BRLTTY itself is currently maintained by Dave Mielke.

Hi Samuel,

 In official images no, indeed.  But it is fixed in my image, isn't it?


At my first try I did not carry out the installation completely, but
cancelled it after selecting the Braille table and the language. Then,
the Braille display was connected via a serial port. Although I entered

install brltty=ht,ttyS0,de

at the boot prompt, BRTTLY was started with the US Braille table. After
selecting the language I had expected my input to be carried out at the
boot prompt and that the Braille table would only have to be chosen when
the Braille display is connected via USB.



BRLTTY was installed correctly and was available instantly after the
installation :-).



You can fix this bug in the official images, can't you?



Best Regards, Simon

Hi Samuel,

 I've implemented a braille table selection menu in debian-installer,
 so that USB braille device users can just plug their device, boot a
 debian installation CD, choose the language/country, and then choose
 the braille table.  I've built a beta mini iso:

 http://brl.thefreecat.org/mini.iso

 Could some people test it?


I downloaded the image and successfully tested it with the Braille star
of the Handy Tech company.

Is this upgrade already accessible in the daily built images and will it
be included in the official installer?



BTW: the bug 373118 (http://bugs.debian.org/373118) has not yet been
eliminated as the test with the netinst CD of 05-Sep-2006 02:09 has
shown.



Best regards, Simon

Great :D

Mario needs to upload a new brltty first. If this happens soon enough,
it will be included in the official installer.
