Thanks to a member of the BrlTTY mailing list, my problem is solved. It
seems that the default authorization of BrltTTY under Ubuntu was no
longer working. Providing it with a dummy key-file was enough to get it
back to work - instantly.
The display came back to life immediately after these steps:
- edit /etc/brltty.conf, uncomment the line "api-parameters Auth=keyfile:/etc/brlapi.key"
- sudo touch /etc/brlapi.key
- sudo chmod 0644 /etc/brlapi.key
For me, the issue is solved.
