Deaf truly is easy. It's not an issue, except that you need to get up when she's off doing something you dont want.

These are some of the best resources for deaf dogs
D2Care, Deaf Dog Connections, Advocacy, Resources & Education, Inc.
http://www.deafdogs.org
deafdogs : The deafdogs mailing list is for people with dogs that are deaf.

And there are a ton of how to videos for training deaf dogs on You Tube.

As to housetraining a deaf dog, it's really no different that housetraining a hearing dog. Keep her leashed to you, take her out often, after eating, drinking, playing, and sleeping, and every 1/2 hour or so at first. Go out with her, so you are there for major treat/praise fests when she goes outside. Ignore any accidents that you dont see happening, and any you see happen, just grab her and take her out, then heavily treat and praise when she goes outside.
