Hi,
when you start NVDA, go to the preferences menu. Here, you should find a new 
tab called braille.
Give a look at that window, do you have brltty selected or you have no 
display?
bye.

Hi Jamie and all,

I just tried to test NVDA with braille and encounter some problems.

So, here is what I have done and what happens:

1. I installed brltty 3.10, configured it for my hardware and it works fine 
by itself.

2: Installed python binding for blapi and copied the appropriate dll in my 
windows\system32 directory.

3. Unpacked python-louis-win_2008_09_18-01.exe in my nvda source directory.

4. ran generate.py in case it is needed.

So now, I started brltty which runs fine.
Then, I start nvda which starts correctly.
What happens is that the braille displays only reacts when I first press 
alt+tab to switch to a window.
At this point, it displays the windows title and ont what is under the 
focus.
Now, if I go on alt+tabing nothing more happens until  I get to a windows 
contains corresponding to a command prompt.
It redisplays the command line and is ready for displayng the first window 
title when alt+tabing once.

May be I miss something.
The nvda source against which I have applied python-louis is the 2429 trunk 
one.

In your last post on the ticket, you talk of a misc-deps file I may be 
missing.
Could you pelease give me directions to investigate.

Note: if of interest, Irun windows xp pro at service pack 3.
