list is quite tedious.
It's always easier to make a selection from a list rather than searching way
back for an item, remembering how to type it, and entering it. When I configure
a kernel, I use menuconfig. Why? Because it's much, much easier to use than the
strictly text-based way.

Brltty's configure script now supports the --disable-icu option. As stated
earlier, though, I consider it unfriendly to withhold features from users based
on what the installer's environment is able to support.

translated into wchars via brltty's convertTextToWchars(), which is mapped to

Where is convertTextToWchars called? What I see in the driver in
readCharacters_LinuxScreen() is a call to setScreenMessage which just
uses strlen

Mmm, this is still marked as fuzzy in the tree, did you perhaps just
forgot to remove the fuzzy keywords? It seems so, see attached patch.
This patch has now (revision 6588) been committed to brltty's development
stream.

Hi:
getCurrentTime() is no longer being called in async. This is new in 5.0.
Perhaps the problem is happening in an older release.

Is there no way for brltty to open a tty secretly?

Do either of you know how often systemd-login retries, and how many times it
tries before giving up? What we could do is open the vt on demand, and then
close it after a timeout of non use.

To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian
using it would seem to be okay. We still need to be sure that all
of what we need for mapping the font positions returned by the vcs devices back
to the original characters is common to all ttys so that fetching them from
tty1 would be valid for other ttys.

[quoted lines by Dave Mielke on 2015/01/20 at 20:32 -0500]
On my Fedora systems - which are managed by systemd - X starts on tty1.
As I understand it, X also wants a free vt. Why is it, then, that X is willing
to start on tty1 (at least on Fedora systems) even though brltty already has
tty1
system failures. This, of course, would
be way before any getty would be started. I suspect that vt_stat would be 0 at
this point, so we either disallow a braille user to deal with early boot
problems or we need to dream up some other approach.

[quoted lines by Dave Mielke on 2015/01/20 at 00:34 -0500]
Brltty could delay opening the tty until the user needs to inject a character.
This could be by typing on the braille device, by requesting cursor routing,
etc. The user probably wouldn't do any of that until the login prompt appears
[quoted lines by Michael Biebl on 2016/12/16 at 05:59 +0100]
>could you give me an update on this issue? Is this still an issue?
No, it isn't. It was fixed almost exactly a year ago. The fix is in brltty 5.4
for sure.
