An Upstart job for brltty can be found within the "Autostart/Upstart/" 
subdirectory of BRLTTY's source tree. It's called "brltty.conf". All you need 
to do is to copy this file into Upstart's jobs directory.

Upstart's jobs directory has changed over time. Older Upstart releases use 
"/etc/event.d/" whereas newer ones use "/etc/init/". You'll need to check your 
system to see which of these directories it's using. Don't get confused by the 
directory "/etc/init.d/", which your system probably also has, and which has a 
similar name. It's used for something entirely different - SysV init scripts.

The file also needs to have the correct name. Older Upstart releases just use 
the job name itself, e.g. "brltty", whereas newer ones append the ".conf" 
extension, e.g. "brltty.conf".

so, for an older Upstart release, you'd do something like this:

   cp brltty.conf /etc/event.d/brltty

and, for a newer Upstart release, you'd do something like this:

   cp brltty.conf /etc/init/brltty.conf

Once the job file is in the right place, brltty will automatically start when 
the system is rebooted. You'll also be able to use standard Upstart commands to 
manage the brltty job. The most common ones are:

   status brltty
   start brltty
   stop brltty

For example: You don't need to reboot the system in order to start brltty. 
Just use Upstart's start command to start it right away.
