This NEW mini-distribution can be installed by a blind person without any assistance from a sighted person. Also, new is the fact that a blind person is now able: a) to preconfigure the braille driver config-file before running Linux b) autocompilation of the braille driver is provided, and c) the braille display is operational when booting BrlSpeak for the first time. Have a look at: http://brlspeak.linux-fan.com/ for more informations and to give it a try! Also don't hesitate to talk to your blind friends about this new BrlSpeak distribution. Finally, contribs are very welcome! Greetings, Osvaldo La Rosa builder of the BrlSpeak mini-distribution.
