It crahses?  Thats indeed very weird.
Please enable debugging in ~/.orca/user-settings.py and direct
it to a file.  Then reproduce the problem and attach the logfile to
a mail to this bug please.

Since you are talking about brltty 4.2, which is not in
lenny, but you are reporting a bug against the
version of orca in lenny, I am guessing you upgraded to
brltty-4.2 manually, right?  Did this problem exist
with the normal (old) version of brltty in lenny as well?


Generally speaking, its possible that braille input under X11
might have corner case issues, since as far as I know, this
is no use case the Orca developers are actively covering.
