Hi everybody,
Does anyone have ever succeeded in getting a USB Wacom Intuos tablet
to work completly (under linux and XFree) ???
Mine doesn't seem to be properly onfigured, I must have missed
something, I compiled 2.4.0-test4 kernel with all (that's what I deem)
every USB and/or Wacom relevant module, my rc.modules boot-sequence
script load theese modules so I get the following when i do a "lsmod":
Module Size Used by
wacom 2916 0 (autoclean) (unused)
hid 11720 0 (autoclean) (unused)
usb-serial 17920 0 (autoclean) (unused)
mousedev 4308 1 (autoclean)
evdev 3888 0 (autoclean) (unused)
input 3456 0 (autoclean) [wacom hid
mousedev evdev]
usb-uhci 23044 0 (autoclean) (unused)
usbcore 51520 1 (autoclean) [wacom hid
usb-serial usb-uhci]
(I tried both usb-uhci.o and uhci.o modules, I have a ABIT BP6
motherboard with an Intel PIIX4 chipset and two Celeron processors)
The Wacom Intuos device seems to be found by the USB modules, so
I get the following when I do a "lsusb":
[...]

I modified XF86config to load the appropriate module, but X11 keeps
on complaining "Error opening /dev/wacom: no such device" whatever
device I link /dev/wacom to (I tried almost every USB and input device
described in /usr/src/linux/Documentation/devices.txt)...
I'm beginning to think I just wasted money being to optmistic when I
bought this USB Intuos tablet...
Thanks
Hubert, sort of desperate
