Re: braille initialization problem

[Kenny Hitt <kenny hittsjunk net>]

Hi.

You need to set the
CONTROLVT

environment var to the virtual console running your X server.  My X
server starts on console 7, so I have the line:

export CONTROLVT=7

I use gdm for logins, so I added the line to my ~/.gnomerc file so it
will be set during the gdm login.

Hope this helps.
          Kenny
