Hey Gene, Don't forget: there are Debian developers on this list. You're writing to one. People have tried to help you - and sometimes got the brush off. I have done a few thousand Debian installs: unless I've actually wanted to use Orca / espeak and a speech installer, I've never had the issues you have had. Some Braille input devices rely on serial / USB -> serial input. It is just possible that an install with serial cables enabled _might_ misidentify as a brltty. Without error messages, the rest of us can do almost nothing except guess. We've been asking for specifics from you for *years* In the middle of your 30 installs I can remember corresponding with you asking to simplify things - but no dice . The installer isn't necessarily broken - hundreds of people use it every day/week/month - but something you have done at some point has tripped an edge case, maybe. Without details / a reinstall we will never, ever know. Complaints without substance to chase down are just complaints. As it is, the readers on the list are presented with an X-Y problem pretty much every month from you.
