Bug#500441: Please document the braille support in the release notes



Package: release-notes

You can use the Debian Installer very good with a brailledisplay. For 
this reason the bootparameter brltty should be documented in the release 
notes.

That is interesting if the brailledisplay isn't detected automatically 
or if another brailletable shall be used.

If you have choosen an item in the bootmenue then you have to press the 
Tab key. Now you find yourself in the line with the standard used 
kernelparameters. Further bootparameters can be typed in imediately.

For brltty there is the following syntax:
brltty=driver,device,table

All operands are optional. You can find the detaills to the meaning of 
the operands under <http://mielke.cc/brltty/guidelines.html#install>.

For my brailledisplay I always type in the following:
brltty=ht,ttyS0,de

Thank you very much in advance for the further documentation.
