Well first thing to do is to make sure your GCC works. And if yours works let me knwo where I can get an ISO image with a working gcc because i'd like to know if it's a bug in the distro or my iso got screwed up. I t woudl bge a good idea to type ./configure --help | less from the brltty source directory so that you can read the help for the configure script. It'l explain what options you cna give it to compile whatever it is that you need. the brltty homepage is at: http://dave.mielke.cc/brltty/ You may wish to read throguh the manual a bit as well. If you want brltty to load at boot time on slackware put the following code in your /etc/rc.d/rc.S right after the top line of the script [ -x /bin/brltty ] && /bin/brltty That will launch the braille display driver before everything else. But check your gcc first before getting brltty because if it is broken like mine was you're going to have a problem. And I'd like to know if yours is broken so I can download another cd image if yours isn't broken I'll know that I've messed something up. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Odd Martin Baanrud" <baanrud@xxxxxxxxxx> To: <blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, March 25, 2003 1:12 PM Subject: Re: Brltty in Slackware 9.0 > At 11:35 25.03.2003 -0800, you wrote: > > >Well there are two things that you can do to fix this.
