[wishlist] brltty

2007-11-24 Thread Y P
Hi all, 
Hi developers and/or maintainers/coworkers,

After having commented the right (3) lines in /etc/init.d/brltty 
as indicated at http://live.gnome.org/Orca/Braille
my Ubntu Gutsy Gibbon *finally* booted-up without overriding my personalized
/etc/brltty.conf

But now I have three proposals for the Ubuntu-Accessibility team/brltty
maintainer(s):

1* first, make us a nice Christmas surprise: do debug it and publish a new
package with the hal/brltty bug fixed !

2* btw, publish a recent version since 3.7.2 seems to be quite old enough...

3* last but not least, I presume autodetection is something important,
but why not making the default text-table then dependent of the 
/etc/default/locale ? 
OK there are more locales and lang support under Linux than Braille tables, 
but that's absolutely not a problem since countries_linguistic parts
like de_de or nl_nl or nl_be probably historically prefer a certain braille
table as default, here de, 
just like for example fr_fr or fr_mc or fr_be or fr_ca prefer the fr table. 
Isn't this an idea ?

Finally you must know that a non-US blind user like me reads
yp|ubuntu56 instead of [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ when brltty's us table is 
default: it's not a problem for five minutes but unusable for a long 
working day...
And we shouldn't talk then about numbers...

I know this is a comlicated problem, but this is a suggestion + an urgent 
wishlist: feel free to discuss about it.

GrtnX

changing sound cards

2007-11-24 Thread mike coulombe
Hi, I have a computer with a build in sound card. I added another one, and see 
it in the sound settings. However, when picking it, orca still uses the built 
in card. Is there something else I need to do, or am I looking in the wrong 
place. 
Mike.
