Public bug reported:
When booting e.g. the 7.10 tribe1 CD, whatever the way braille gets
activated (boot menu, "brltty=" trick or USB auto-detection), orca
should automatically get started. For instance, you can try on a
box that has a serial port:
- boot the liveCD
- press F5 (accessibility)
- choose Braille Terminal
- really boot the CD
When it prompts for the braille device configuration,
- answer s to the kind of connection (serial)
- answer 0 to the number of the serial port
- answer vs to the device type
- then it starts the gnome desktop
On the serial port, you'll notice this: >CREEN NOT IN TEXT MODE. That
means that brltty is correctly started, but that orca wasn't started
and hence a blind user can't read the gnome desktop.
Other ways to start braille that should be supported are as follows:
- plug a USB braille device
- just let boot the liveCD without typing anything at boot menu
- udev detects the USB braille device and starts brltty
- boot the liveCD
- press F6
- type brltty=vs,ttyS0
- really boot the CD
- brltty automatically gets started
