Hi Jan:

Currently, there's really not a good platform independent
way to
determine which tty the X Server is on, so we hard code the
default to 7
in Orca.  Samuel gave me a couple ways to try to get the
tty, such as a
the presence and value of property on the root window, and
I'll be
taking a look at that.

In the meantime, I just checked a change to GNOME CVS HEAD
for you - it
allows you to specify the tty.  You can do this in your
~/.orca/user-settings.py file:

orca.settings.tty=7

To be sure this is working, set the debug level in your
~/.orca/user-settings.py file to the following:

orca.debug.debugLevel = orca.debug.LEVEL_CONFIGURATION

You should see a line similar to the following when you run
orca:

Initializing braille on tty=7

Hope this helps.  If things still don't work for you with
braille, we
can try debugging some more.  The good/bad news is that it
works great
for me and others.  We'll just have to do some debugging to
figure out
why it's not working on your machine.

Unfortunatelly not works. I did all what you wrote and here
is the
result:

$ orca
Using speech server factory: orca.speechdispatcherfactory
Speech module has been initialized.
Initializing braille on tty=8

Traceback (most recent call last):

But Emacs under X with brlapi works.
Best.

Just for an update: I checked in some code to do this
yesterday.  It'll
be in Orca v2.17.4.

Odd.  This means it cannot find the BrlAPI Python bindings
that are in
the latest BrlTTY, so it is falling back to the Python
bindings we built
in to Orca.  Then, it cannot find a particular symbol that
it expects.

I'm going to guess this:  the latest BrlTTY/BrlAPI was
built/installed
on the machine, overwriting the older stuff.  As part of
this, however,
the "--enable-python-bindings" option was not
passed to
autogen.sh/configure.  If this were the case, I believe
BrlAPI's new
Python bindings would not have been built/installed.  The
result is that
you have new libraries, but not new Python bindings.

If this is the case, the solution is to rebuild
BrlTTY/BrlAPI, passing
"--enable-python-bindings" to autogen.
