On a typical Braille-enabled installation of Linux, BrlTTY is already running and providing access to the text consoles. When Orca starts, it connects to BrlTTY. If you switch from a text console to your X Windows session, your Braille display will automatically follow and display the content that Orca is presenting to you.
