Well there are two things that you can do to fix this. If you are able to do this the best would be to uninstall the brltty package and build brltty from source since the version included with slackware is not the most recent version and the papenmeier driver in the latest version has vbeen significantly improved. So if yo are able the best would be to build brltty 3.2 from sourcve and install that for your display. When you build it if you compile in the driver for your display it will be easier to run it. For your display you'd configure brltty sources like this: ./configure --with-braille-driver=pm --with-braille-device=ttyS1 and any other things you want compiled in. Then if it builds correctly you'll just type brltty as root to run it. I installed slackware 9 the other day and noticed that the gcc 3.2 packages was corrupted . Does your GCC work? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Odd Martin Baanrud" <baanrud@xxxxxxxxxx> To: <blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, March 25, 2003 11:04 AM Subject: Brltty in Slackware 9.0 > Hi > > I have now installed Slackware 9.0.
