Hi!
My dad likes to paint a bit so I got him a Wacom tablet as a present
(Bamboo Pen & Touch), and I thought I could help getting it working
on FreeBSD while I was at it... Asked hps, who kindly prepared a
webcamd update that adds support:
svn --username anonsvn --password anonsvn \
checkout svn://svn.turbocat.net/i4b/trunk/ports
cd ports/multimedia/webcamd && make all install clean
which I now tested with a preliminary x11-drivers/input-wacom xorg
driver update that I prepared:
http://people.freebsd.org/~nox/tmp/inputwacom.patch
I had to rebuild xorg-server without hal support because apparently
hal and thus the xserver picked up webcamd's /dev/input node for
the wacom which made my mouse misbehave (proper hal configs to
ignore webcamd's device node welcome, :) and I added this to
xorg.conf:
----snip---
Section "ServerLayout"
...
InputDevice "stylus"
InputDevice "eraser"
...
EndSection
...
Section "InputDevice"
Driver "wacom"
Identifier "stylus"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/event0"
Option "Type" "stylus"
Option "USB" "on"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Driver "wacom"
Identifier "eraser"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/event0"
Option "Type" "eraser"
Option "USB" "on"
EndSection
----snip---
..and that appears to have got graphics/mypaint working (which
btw needs x11-toolkits/py-gtk2 rebuilt with the NUMPY knob on),
with both the stylus and eraser of my (dad's) tablet. (mypaint
ignores the pad device so I removed it from xorg.conf again, see
the wacom(4x) manpage and the input-wacom wiki.)
Happy testing, and thanks to Hans!
Juergen
