Hi Philippe ,
HI Ulrich.
JFTR we are currently discussing our decision regarding the brltty boot option. We just discovered that the bootoption was for example already according to http://mielke.cc/brltty/guidelines.html Christan Hofstaedtler reported http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=653587 while investigating the current state of brltty in Debian.
I have no information about this ; I'll try to follow these links next week.
One small question does brltty really supports configuring itself via the bootoption?
Yes, perfectly for me with grml or debian.
Do you need any parameters like -b -d or -t at all if you specify the brltty boot option in the commandline?
I don't understand exactly what you mean ; nevertheless, I'll try to answer as best as possible :
1) with the correct boot option (for me brltty=pm,usb:,fr_FR), there's nothing more to do ; 2) without the boot option, after the tones in grml_2011.12, without any boot option about language, I have to use the -t option on the commandline ; but for someone connected with something else than usb, the -b and -d options are mandatory.
I hope this is the answer you are waiting for :-)
I don't agree :-) For me, it is simpler to use grml2iso one time :
grml2iso -b "my boot options" -o grml_brl.iso grml_2011.05.iso
and then, there's nothing to do !
JFTR you can still do it:
- Create a directory named /tmp/grml_overlay We will use grml2iso to
copy the content of this directory to the iso. 2) Create a directory named scripts inside /tmp/grml_overlay and create a script named grml.sh inside the directory (/tmp/grml_overlay/scripts/grml.sh) 3) Inside the script run the necessary commands to start brltty
Shall I se the bootoption style or the commandline style ? I guess the command line but...
- run
grml2iso -b "boot options scripts" -c /tmp/grml_overlay -o grml_brl.iso grml_2011.05.iso
I think you mean grml_2011.12.iso or is it a mistake from me ?
And in the -b parameter, shall I, for instance, type : "lang=fr scripts" ?
The important option here is the scripts bootoption which will automatically run scripts/grml.sh at startup. This allows you to automatically start brltty on your own. The -c bootoption copies the content from the specified directory directly onto the iso image containing your script which will start brltty.
This is perfect for me but I fear it's a little complicated for other blind people I know :-)
OVERLAY_DIR=/tmp/grml_overlay mkdir "$OVERLAY_DIR" mkdir "$OVERLAY_DIR"/scripts vi "$OVERLAY_DIR"/scripts/grml.sh
I should have used {$OVERLAY_DIR} or simply $OVERLAY_dir ; am I wrong ?
chmod 755 $OVERLAY_DIR"/scripts/grml.sh grml2iso -b "boot options scripts" -c /tmp/grml_overlay -o grml_brl.iso grml_2011.05.iso
I'll try this as soon as possible but not this new year week-end.
cheers,
Real thanks !
