 Posted: Thu Dec 12, 2002 11:04 pm Post subject: Wacom Tablet Issues and Problems |
 |
|
First off - my apologies if I should have continued one or another Wacom thread....in my experience, if it's something/someone different, new thread. But you folks might think differently...anyway......I am new to gentoo, please be patient with me.
Now! On to the probem!
I have a USB Wacom tablet, and I'm having just a bit of trouble getting it tweaked correctly. What I would like to do is a) have it move on the X screen, and b) have it be in relative mode.
Here is my issue - when I start up X (4.2.1) my cursor shows up on the screen, but it won't move. It just sits in the center and laughs at me. 8(
Here is some system info....
- I have evdev and wacom compiled as modules (with gentoo-sources-2.4.19-r10). Loading them in the modules.autoload. That is all good. No problems in the dmesg. The wacom tablet is loaded without a problem (as far as I can tell).
- Here is my XFree86Config....
| Code: |
Section "Module"
<---snip--->
#Load up the evdev/mousedev and wacom modules! whoohoo........
Load "evdev"
Load "wacom"
EndSection
<---snip--->
Section "InputDevice"
# Identifier and driver
Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "wacom"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/event0"
Option "Type" "cursor"
Option "Mode" "Relative"
Option "USB" "on"
Option "DebugLevel" "10"
EndSection
<---snip--->
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Simple Layout"
Screen "Screen 1"
InputDevice "Mouse1" "AlwaysCore"
InputDevice "Keyboard1" "CoreKeyboard"
EndSection
|
And here is some output from the XFree86 log....
| Code: |
(**) Option "CorePointer"
(**) Mouse1: Core Pointer
(**) Mouse1 serial device is /dev/input/event0
(**) Option "DebugLevel" "10"
(**) WACOM: debug level set to 10

Again - I am new to gentoo (and configuring wacom tablets in general) so please, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you. |

Responding to my own post, but don't want people to waste their time digging through my XF86Config and log above for no good reason.
Turns out, I was being stubborn and not wanting to plug in a PS/2 mouse at the same time as my wacom tablet ....don't ask why, I don't have a good reason, but once I did and used the XFree86 config's from one of the links above (http://people.mandrakesoft.com/~flepied/projects/wacom/), all was well.
Almost perfect....for some reason, it seems like I cannot use the wacom tablet for about 10-20 seconds after X starts. Very strange, but I can deal with it. =)
Just glad to have my tablet back.
Whooo! |
