[quoted lines by Janina Sajka on 2004/05/23 at 22:02 -0400] >I can't say definitively but would expect that kudzu and cups would not be an >issue for brltty. kudzu is a problem for some models of braille displays which use a serial port. This is because kudzu sends byte sequences to each serial port to see if any serial mice have been added/deleted. Some braille display models get confused by these byte sequences whereas others don't. It's usually better, though, to put kudzu into safe mode (no serial port probing) rather than to turn it off so that it can still help with the configuration of new non-serial devices. I don't understand the issue with cups. As I understand cups, it only ever does I/O on devices which have been explicitly associated with defined printers. Rather than turn cups off, therefore, why not just not define any printer which uses a serial port? That would still leave cups running for printers which are accessible via a parallel port or the network. -- Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | I believe that the Bible is the Phone: 1-613-726-0014 | Ottawa, Ontario | Word of God.
