Does anyone on here read code in braille?

[Linux for blind general discussion]

I started on an orbit reader 20 and it should work that way for Linux.  Unfortunately, I've only tried it on Windows and it does indeed work there for display and typing.  It's mostly about the braille support in the "screen reader" usually.  Now, the Orbit should be in the remote USB mode *before* you connect to the computer for the first time as a minimum.  Otherwise, the USB doesn't quite work right in my experiences.

A question about the Orbit and Linux please.  Using your orbit, can you run your computer with it such that the computer understands your orbit is both the keyboard and the screen?
