Orca libbrlapi1-dev must be installed for braille support with ??

[Joanmarie Diggs <j-diggs comcast net>]

Hi all.    I just discovered something that I figured was worth 
mentioning here for documentation via list archive.  Perhaps it should 
be included on the Orca wiki as well (unless it's already there and I 
just am missing it).

It seems that installing libbrlapi1-dev may be necessary if you want to 
use a refreshable braille display with Orca -- at least with Ubuntu.  

On two of my systems, I'm migrating over to  Edgy.  On one system I 
tried setting up an Alva Braille Terminal; on the other a Braille Lite 
in speech box mode.  In both cases, they worked "out of the box" with 
Gnopernicus, but not were not recognized by Orca.  After installing 
libbrlapi1-dev on each machine, the displays worked as expected.     I 
don't *believe* that this is an issue unique to Edgy:  I did have a hard 
time getting braille working under Dapper, but to be honest I wasn't 
being all that systematic with what I tried back then; this time I paid 
attention. <smile>

Take care.
