Good news everyone! It is with great pleasure that I can announce a new driver in our happy family: xf86-input-wacom.
xf86-input-wacom is a fork of the linuxwacom driver and the credit goes to Ping Cheng for forking it, cleaning out pre-server-1.6 cruft and adding the initial device property support. We've now removed the (more or less) unrelated kernel driver from the repository and are in the middle of a property code cleanup. Right now, the driver sits in my people repository on: git://people.freedesktop.org/~whot/xf86-input-wacom.git http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~whot/xf86-input-wacom/ The current 0.9.1 is stable but the driver is quite active in development, the property-rework branch is currently the most active one. Our bugzilla interface already has a Input/wacom field, so feel free to test the driver, report bugs, and send us patches and/or beverage. In the near future, this driver will wander into a proper directory and join the illustrous circle of mouse, keyboard, evdev and synaptics. This brings all major input drivers under one roof, making it a lot easier to sync the driver with future server API changes and - possibly - share some code between the drivers. Note that xf86-input-wacom is licenced under the GPL and thus will not be part of the katamari release. For the time being, we will sync linuxwacom and xf86-input-wacom, as there is a large number of users over at sourceforge. Future development will be focusing mostly on xf86-input-wacom. So here's to Ping and getting the last of the big 4 input drivers under our roof. Cheers, Peter _______________________________________________ xorg-devel mailing list xorg-devel@lists.x.org http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-devel
