[Scott Ford]

Hi,
	 I have been using the grml distro.  The command line that you need
to type in is, as follows.
Grml blind start braille-terminal (no) x grml swspeak

Go to www.grml.org, and download the image, about 650 MB I think. At the
boot prompt, use:
grml swspeak
I also use:
lang=uk keyboard=uk
