Hi Dave, hi everybody,
sorry for my long absence and silence since a few days ago, I don't forgot
you, I simply have been busy.
Even if I wrote all your mails, I tried today to REinstall a fresh Ubuntu
8.04.1 distro (desktop version) on my Asus laptop.
These are the new results of my experience:
How do I proceeded ?
- the CD starts up and points me for the desired language; at that point I
do 1x right.arr and 5x down.arr for Dutch, & enter
- with F3 and in this case 4x left.arr I choose for Belgian keyboard, enter
(1st BUG observed, see below)
- now I switch to F5 + 4x down.arr for selecting braille, enter
- and F6 where I enter: brltty=al,usb:,de then I press enter:
Ubuntu live starts up and I got braille with the right table at the end of
that process, except (bug nr2) that it asked for re-entering the model and
device before he REALLY started-up.
Now I didn't found the Install button, so my partner started the real
installer using the mouse; in fact at that moment Orca is completely blind
and can't follow: no braille no voice (bug nr3).
After finishing installation, Ubuntu was rebooted and I got *no braille*
(bug nr4, see below):
I will attach here the reasons (/the right files) so everybody can see that
there is a real BIG problem in Ubuntu Hardy.
Finally, I encountered again the "braille=ask" bug in Grub's menu.lst (bug
nr5).
How did I fixed that ?
- first by opening blindly a console, running a killall brltty, then
restarting brltty with -b al -d usb: -t de to check if it worked,
and he did!
- then I edited /boot/grub/menu.lst to suppress that absurd / uncomprehensive
and totally blindUNfriendly "braille=ask"
- and finally I edited /etc/brltty.conf to correct the device line who was
*and still is* completely wrong and unusable, see attached file.
- I also checked if /etc/default/brltty was OK, and it said "Yes" so
that is OK.
Bugs:
1: you may do and redo your kbd selection, each time you leave F3 then press
F3 again, it resets itself to US keyboard.
2: why asking for brl type and dev since you already choosed it in F5 and
entered by the way your params in F6 ?
3: no braille nor speech during installation even when having braille in the
started live CD...
4: no braille due to a wrongly edited /etc/brltty.conf file by Ubuntu
itself, cf. attach, and read please the line above, its clearly mentionned
what/who did that... + brltty.conf.orig is already present and is the
template but Ubuntu doesn't touched that template, it only dropped a 2 à 3
lines wrong config-file instead...
5: braille=ask in menu.lst causes a major problem when rebooting the system
blindly; I attached that menu.lst file created by Ubntu itself.
Fixing now!
Is someone here familiar enough with Launchpad and other Bugzilla services
to help with reporting the problems to the right person at the right
place: five bugs are more than enough IMHO to urge for fixing it and asking
for adding the fixes in the next LTS 8.04.2 CD.
Grtnx, and once again sorry for delay.
Osvaldo La Rosa.
