There are lots of ways to use Braille displays under Linux. Actually Suse ships with drivers for most Braille displays. I thought he was asking about a notetaker that actually uses Linux for it's operating system, that's why I said the Elba was the only notetaker that I knew of that did this.

I am using it with a Braille Lite 40. BRLTTY has a good Grade 2 translator. FYI: I am developing a Braille translator that will run under Gnome and have math and tactile graphics built in from the start.
