All,

brltty is a program that allows a blind person using a braille display to access the computer screen.

I would like to see this feature encorporated into the gentoo release media starting with 2008.0 for at least amd64 and x86.  The program is marked stable on all gentoo arches, so if you would like to add it to the others as well it should not be a problem.

Please consult http://www.mielke.cc/brltty/guidelines.html regarding how to start brltty on the live cd.

Thanks much.

William
