Hi, yes i've seen people working with Braile and a software-speach, on a suse system. They told me some Brailedisplays would be automatically detect during installation and it would be switched in a textmodus and all should be usable by a blind person. but my combibraile does not belong to the braildisplays , which will be detected. I saw a site on the web, sblinux or blinux? where these displays are mentioned. Sorry i can be of more help. The braildriver is called sblinux, if memory serves me right.
