It would be appreciated if you could provide some clarification if there is something else we can track to indicate the status on resolving this issue. Closing bugs without actually resolving the issue to the submitter(s) satisfaction is discouraging and happens all too often. I would appreciate it, Bryce, if you could provide any information regarding where further information can be found regarding the resolution of our actual issue. wacom-tools does not activate the tablet functionality of my X61t. I have recently reinstalled with 8.10 and been testing the first Alpha of 9.04. This functionality is still not working out of the box. Since you reference the wacom-tools task is sufficient can you please provide a link to where people that find this bug searching for resolution may find their resolution?

If you want to track the issue, there's a blueprint for Jaunty at https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/wacom-tablets-ui There's been a few discussions in ubuntu-devel-discuss, ubuntu-x, linuxwacom-discuss and linuxwacom-devel. Check the archives for October/November 2008. xorg mailing list has offered nothing (the person that proposed HAL and .fdi files for wacom tablets doesn't seem to have understood that HAL won't allow more than one device, and that it's not going to work). As a quick summary, hotpluging won't allow a decent solution in the next few month, or even years (see the discussions), and nobody has even offered the beginning of a possible solution.

Hi adolfoaz, Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? (ISOs are available from cdimage.ubuntu.com) If it remains an issue, could you also attach a new /var/log/Xorg.0.log? Thanks in advance.

I've tried it out what Timo Aaltonen said, but it didn't work. Xorg loads a module wacom but no specific options for the pencil (absolute positioning) and nothing is added to xorg.conf.

[Bug 215689] Re: Want auto-configuration or gui configuration of Wacom tablets
Hardy does not detect my ThinkPad X61T as a tablet and does not enable the WACOM tablet / display by default. I recently installed Hardy on my Thinkpad X41 tablet, and also experienced the issue of a non-working stylus. I noticed that /dev/input/wacom was actually there and configured correctly after the install, but (as reported above) none of the necessary configuration for using it with X was present in xorg.conf. Luckily, I'd backed up my xorg.conf from a previous install so I didn't have to dig very far to discover what the problem was. For tablet PC users (there will probably be more of us soon, as most educators I demonstrate tablet technology to really like it), this seems like a bug in the Ubuntu installer. Shouldn't there be some logic to say that if a tablet is detected at install time, then the user will most definitely want the default xorg.conf to contain the relevant bits enabling the tablet? Or perhaps an ubuntu-tablet package, which installs wacom-tools (needed for rotation), a rotation applet or script, cellwriter, and xournal? As a bonus, it could configure gdm and gnome-screensaver with an on-screen keyboard so tablet users could log in and use the screen-lock feature without having to unfold the tablet. -- Want auto-configuration or gui configuration of Wacom tablets https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/215689 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 215689] Re: Want auto-configuration or gui configuration of Wacom tablets
** Summary changed: - Wacom tablet is not supported anymore + Want auto-configuration or gui configuration of Wacom tablets ** Description changed: + By default, input devices like wacom tablets must be manually enabled in + xorg.conf. This is how Xorg has worked by default. + + In Feisty and some earlier versions, Ubuntu's dexconf would hardcode the + Wacom tablet entries into all Ubuntu user's xorg.conf in order to make + wacom tablets work out of the box on the few users systems that had + them. This resulted in confusing warnings being emitted to the majority + of users who did not have wacom tablets, and also caused bugs in other + applications (notably rendering an important accessibility tool + unusable), so after many, many requests by users the entries were + disabled. + + The unfortunate result is that this means wacom users have to once again + manually configure this in xorg.conf if doing a fresh install.For + people who upgraded from Feisty to Gutsy, this was not an issue since + their xorg.conf was carried along unchanged. + + In a way this trades one bug for another, but the fix for the original + bug was just an ugly hack. When input hotplug works reliably (hopefully + in time for Intrepid), it will no longer be necessary to require users + to modify xorg.conf, but for now that is the standard way to do it. + + [Original Report Follows] Hi everyone, My wacom table graphire worked OK in Gutsy Gibbons, I made a clean install of Hardy Heron, and now only the pen is working (but not the eraser and the pressure) i.e. the mouse is not working!
