Re: Missing braille durring boot



Hello Mario,

At 14:54 05.03.2009, you wrote:

As you indicated in another mail, /etc/rcS.d/S25brltty is also present, right?

That's correct.

Where does it point to, i.e. what does "readlink /etc/rcS.d/S25brltty" say?

It points to "../init.d/brltty".

2. Alternatively, you can edit /etc/default/bootlogd and set the variable
   BOOTLOGD_ENABLE=Yes.  Then, reboot and after the bootup inspect the file
/var/log/boot. Is there any error message from BRLTTY during boot in there?

Yes.
Here it is:

Thu Mar 5 16:29:49 2009: Starting Braille terminal driver: brltty/sbin/brltty: error while loading shared libraries: libgpm.so.2: cannot open shared object
file: No such file or directory

The strange thing is that BRLTTY can be started just fine via /etc/init.d/brltty after the ssystem is up and running.

Additionally, on what type of machine did you install?  Is the serial
port a native serial port, or a USB-to-serial adaptor?  What device specifier
did you use, and what is the setting of braille-device in your
/etc/brltty.conf?

The serial port is a native one, and it's specified with /dev/ttyS0 in /etc/brltty.conf. Durring install, I specified it as ttyS0, and BRLTTY was running just fine within D I.
I also saw "Running BRLTTY" near the end of install.
