Hello!
Using vinux and have a lot of problems with brltty not wanting to start
when the system boots.
Luckely i have emacspeak to rely on but its a pain in the but not having
brltty to start at bootup.
This happend after i upgraded to the latest versionof brltty.
I am not sure what really whent wrong because i can start it with the
run-brltty script.
People is telling me to check that brltty is in the initramfs and it is.
Here is the startup script i have in the etc/default folder.
#! /bin/sh
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: brltty
# Required-Start: mountkernfs
# Required-Stop:
# Should-Start: udev
# Should-Stop:
# Default-Start: S
# Default-Stop:
# Short-Description: Braille terminal driver
# Description: Used to provide access to refreshable braille terminals.
### END INIT INFO
set -e
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
DAEMON=/sbin/brltty
NAME=brltty
DESC='Braille terminal driver'
test -f $DAEMON || exit 0
# /etc/brltty.conf may need to be propagated from the initramfs. (This is a
# pretty awful hack.)
if [ -e /dev/.initramfs/brltty.conf ] && [ -e /etc/default/brltty ]; then
mv /dev/.initramfs/brltty.conf /etc/brltty.conf
sed -i -e 's/^RUN_BRLTTY=.*/RUN_BRLTTY=yes/' /etc/default/brltty
fi
[ -r /etc/default/brltty ] && . /etc/default/brltty
# Edit /etc/default/brltty and set RUN_BRLTTY=yes to allow brltty to be
# started.
if [ "$RUN_BRLTTY" != yes ]; then
exit 0
fi
set -e
[ -r /etc/default/locale ] && . /etc/default/locale
[ -n "$LANG" ] && export LANG
. /lib/lsb/init-functions
case "$1" in
start)
if [ "$RUNLEVEL" = "S" -a "$PREVLEVEL" = "N" ]; then
if [ "$START_IN_INITRAMFS" = "true" -o "$START_IN_INITRAMFS" =
"yes" ]; then
if $0 status >/dev/null; then
$0 stop
else
log_warning_msg 'BRLTTY was not running, did you forget
to invoke "update-initramfs -u"?'

;;

echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/$NAME

exit 1
;;
esac
exit 0
