Re: brltty=huge distraction for folks that don't need it.

Greetings All;
Without any conscious prompting by me, te debian 11.1 netinstall for x86-64
systems installed and setup whatever was needed to bring the screen reader
to life.
That is strange. Should not happen. The accessibility is installed only
if you press s or if you plug a braille device.
Any thing related to a braile function that I try to remove wants to kill
another 2 or 3 gigs of system with it.
Perhaps you can provide your /var/log/installer log somewhere to enable
the team to see what happent? Better, you could report bug to
debian-installer (but probably show here the log first). The log will be
required anyway.
Quite distracting to a sighted user when that robotic voice, speaking a very
broken bandwidth of what might be english, blaring out of ones speakers 20
db louder than firefoxes audio can I am sure, find a way to silence this w/o
destroying the rest of the system. Removing orca will shut it up, but that
leaves brltty spamming the daemon.log complaining about a missing library
every 5 seconds. And that's close to 40 megabytes a week.
Note waiting for a good solution for packages, in your desktop, you can
disable the accessibility via the control panel.
So, how does one shut up this useless to me, screen-reader and kill the log
spamming at the same time?
ALso see wiki.debian.org/accessibility where you see the gsetting line
to enable accessibility (type the same one replacing true with false to
revert the thing).
I think its great that folks have gone to that effort for the sightless, but
why is that sort of stuff always made mandatory.
That is a bug I see for the first time. Hence my interest for a log, as
so far no one reported it AFAIK.
Regards
I'd sure appreciate any help cleaning it out
Thanks everybody.
Cheers, Gene Heskett.
