[Bug 58718] brltty must be started with sudo
Public bug reported: Permissions in Ubuntu seem to be prganised such that brltty (the braille system) must always be started as root (sudo). Please consider adding a device type that normal users can have the appropriate permissions for to fix this. $ brltty brltty: BRLTTY 3.7.2 brltty: Linux Screen Driver brltty: Cannot open screen device: /dev/vcsa: Permission denied brltty: cannot read screen. ** Affects: brltty (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- brltty must be started with sudo https://launchpad.net/bugs/58718 -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility
knot-2
Hi, has anyone been able to get the knot-2 CD. I go to the site and it says no links. Is there a alternative site I can get it from, or is it going to be put up later. Thanks Mike.

[Bug 56452] Re: Edgy: at-spi Crashes frequently
Yes this happens often to me as well. I'm using Edgy up-to-date. I've attached my crash report. -- Edgy: at-spi Crashes frequently https://launchpad.net/bugs/56452 -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility
boot
Ok, I got ahold of a older hp laptop. It has a 1000 MHz processor, 256 Mb ram and 19 gb hard drive. When I boot the CD it spins for about a minute loading then stops completely. Any ideas why. This unit has video but no screen. I am blind so that part doesn't matter to me. I had a similar problem on a dell desktop, but when this happens the screen goes blank from what I was told. Thanks for any help Mike. -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility
Orca *seems* to work with 64-bit Edgy live CD.
Hi all. I just tried the 64-bit live CD of Edgy Knot 2. I wasn't all that thorough in my testing, but Orca *seems* to be working as I would expect. From this, can I make any assumptions about the gnome-speech/Bonobo activation issues being solved? (If I missed an announcement somewhere, my apologies!) Thanks in advance!
