Richard Emling (DO9RE)<p>Habe ich intusiastische Reverse Engenierende unter meinen Folgenden, mit denen ich mir mal eine Alte Braille Zeile anschauen könnte, deren Treiber bisher nicht bei <a href="https://metalhead.club/tags/BRLTTY" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BRLTTY</span></a> eingepflegt ist? Dieser bestimmte Gerätetyp liegt zu hauf bei <a href="https://metalhead.club/tags/Blinden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Blinden</span></a> herum und kann unter "modernen" Betriebssystemen nicht mehr verwendet werden. Vielleicht ist hier ja eine fähige Person, die sich mal den alten Windows oder Dos Treiber anschauen könnte und rausfindet, welche Sprache der mit dem Gerät spricht. Auf dieser Basis könnte dann BRLTTY um dieses Protokoll erweitert werden. Ich besitze leider das dafür nötige KnowHow nicht.</p>
Lanie Carmelo<p>Just installed <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/archlinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>archlinux</span></a> on my computer.

It shouldn't take too long, and I don't want to boot from the <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/usb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>usb</span></a> again. <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/BeMyEyes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BeMyEyes</span></a> is great, but I'd prefer help from someone who knows <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>linux</span></a>. <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/blind" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>blind</span></a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/tech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tech</span></a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/technology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>technology</span></a> <a href="https://tweesecake.social/tags/arch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>arch</span></a></p>
