To start the brailledisplay after starting cd, type
brltty=type,port,brailletable
(enter)
The keyboard is by default querty I think.
But, you can not install this live-cd on the hd.
I mean: you can but it's very unstable.
Knoppix uses debian unstable.
I think you can do this with kanotix (also debian-based) but this cd has
no
braille-support :(
Another cool distro with braille support is GRML. It is a Live CD with
many textbased tools, grafical envirorments aren't on this distro. IMHO
brltty is used for braille support.
