Well after I used that command I found out that moving the pen over
the tablet for /dev/input/event3 worked. So I changed my XF86Config-4
accordingly and it worked!!! However then I wanted to understand the
problem (what a foolish idea), since
- I played around with the drivers (wacom and usbhid) from
linuxwacom-0.7.2 and the one shipped in the vanilla 2.6.13
kernel and
- moreover with the wacom_drv.o in
/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/input/
(running XFree 4.3) vrs the one in linuxwacom-0.7.2/prebuild
When I removed the wacom_drv.o the tablet did not work any more
so thise are essentials. Then I rebooted and therefore the
drivers of the 2.6.13 were used.
- Now the tablet was no longer /dev/input/event3 but
/dev/input/event2. However when I changed the XF86Config-4
file, the tablet was not recognised any longer. Then I
removed the 2.6.13 drivers and inserted the
linuxwacom-0.7.2 drivers (not sure which to put first,
wacom or usbhid). Anyhow
Now wacomdump /dev/input/event3 returns error
13:28:28.319 ERROR: Failed to open /dev/input/event3: No such device
WacomOpenTablet: No such device
Also the device is there!!!!!! I changed again to the 2.6.13
drivers. But no success. So now it seems really f....up
I am now really confused. It looks like a module problem!!!
