You could try hidio, which is in SVN in externals/io/hidio. I specifically worked on these kind of issues there. It should be useable. I plan on making a proper release of it this summer. .hc On May 15, 2009, at 9:31 AM, Rich E wrote: I tried these for a couple hours, quite a long ti

Check the help patch, there are some subpatches on the top illustrating alternate methods of specifying the device. vendorid/ productid is quite useful, but I forgot if that is implemtned in GNU/ Linux. There are other ways too. .hc On May 13, 2009, at 11:47 AM, Rich E wrote: Can you

You can use the [print( message and look for the wacom in the Pd window. .hc On May 12, 2009, at 2:23 PM, Rich E wrote: I use [linuxevent /dev/wacom] in linux... plus an abstraction. Works fine and provides everything I need. [hid] does work, but you have to know exactly what /dev/* file

Hello Pd developers and programmers, we - me and Johannes Kreidler for now - wanted to ask if anyone would be interested in programming a version of Thomas Grill's [wacom] for windows (and unix, if possible). This external is used to take data from wacom tablets - so in case anyone else is intere
