Hello all,

Well. I've tried to resolve this myself with no success.

A recap :)

I have a Dolphin Graphic tablet and pen.

USB Tablet Series Version 1.04
Manufacturer: AIPTEK International Inc.
Speed: 1.5Mb/s (low)
USB Version:  1.10
Device Class: 00(>ifc )
Device Subclass: 00
Device Protocol: 00
Maximum Default Endpoint Size: 8
Number of Configurations: 1
Vendor Id: 08ca
Product Id: 0010
Revision Number:  1.03

According to my reading, it is supposed to be a clone of the Hyperpen 8000U OR 12000U (originally thought it was a 600U)

The pen, when plugged in can be seen by Mandrake 10 Official (as above).

Everything works, pressure, buttons on pen (there are no buttons on the tablet) etc... except:

By scribing an area roughly an inch down and two across, the cursor covers the whole screen. The tablet it obviously much bigger - 150mm across by 115mm down.

Now, I've tried a number of suggestions I've found on-line - the latest being:

(It's a little long and didn't want to paste it in)

I've changed the baud rate in the suggestion to a slower speed and found that it makes no difference.

X starts (I've crashed it that frequently that I can now replace the XF86Config-4 file in my sleep) okay with the changes suggested on the site above - but nothing is changed.

I suspect (!) that the pen is NOT even reading what I've put in (pardon my expression, but I don't really know WHAT should be reading the configuring I've been doing :))

So... I'm now back to square one. I haven't buggered it up, I still have my original XF86Config-4 file (thanks to those who reminded me to do this earlier) and I still have my Mandrake box going and, barely, my self respect.

Any and all suggestions most gratefully appreciated.

Regards,

   Patrick
