Hello Gina, It might be that I forgot to put it on. If that's the case then this sequence should solve this: sudo pacman -Syu sudo pacman -S brltty sudo systemctl enable brltty.service (edit the file brltty.conf to configure your Braille display) sudo systemctl start brltty.service Your Braille display will probably be /dev/ttyUSB0 if it's the first serial device plugged in.
