-The brltty boot-time parameter consists of three comma-separated fields: **driver**, **device**, and **table**.  The first is the driver for your display, the second is the name of the device file, and the third is a relative path to a translation table.  You can use "<color #620BB9/#EEDDFF>auto</color>" to specify that the driver should be automatically detected.  I encourage you to read the <color #620BB9/#EEDDFF>brltty</color> documentation for a fuller explanation of the program. +The brltty boot-time parameter consists of three comma-separated fields: **driver**, **device**, and **table**.  The first is the driver for your display, the second is the name of the device file, and the third is a relative path to a translation table.  You can use "<color #620BB9/#EEDDFF>auto</color>" to specify that the driver should be automatically detected.  We encourage you to read the <color #620BB9/#EEDDFF>brltty</color> documentation for a fuller explanation of the program.

-Once <color #620BB9/#EEDDFF>brltty</color> is running, you may wish to disable speech.  You can do so via the "<color #620BB9/#EEDDFF>print screen</color>" key, also known as <color #620BB9/#EEDDFF>sysrq</color>.  On my qwerty keyboard, that key is located directly above the insert key, between F12 and scroll lock.+
