Re: [Linuxwacom-discuss] graphire 3 on kernel 2.6.1-rc2

[Carl E. <ca...@go...>]

Hi,

can anyone give me a hint about this?

I realized that I had do do a make modules aswell, and now dmesg seems 
correct:

[dmesg|grep -i wacom]
input: Wacom Graphire3 4x5 on usb-0000:00:11.2-1
drivers/usb/core/usb.c: registered new driver wacom
drivers/usb/input/wacom.c: v1.30:USB Wacom Graphire and Wacom Intuos tablet 
driver
[...]

and I can use absolute positioning... But I can not use the different 
pointers, everything comes from the core pointer (at /dev/psaux without 
anything plugged in) and pressure sensitivity doesn't work..

And it seems that wacom_drv doesn't recognize the tablet.. I use the prebuilt 
one. I guess this is where the error is, but how can I correct it? Will I 
have to build my own wacom_drv?

Regards, and thanks for any help,
Carl Ekman

Re: [Linuxwacom-discuss] graphire 3 on kernel 2.6.1-rc2

[Carl E. <ca...@go...>]

Thanks Ping and Ned for the help!

Though, I must ask once more, I am still stuck.

Now I use the 0.5.4-beta but I am not sure if I have understood the 
installation process.

I did
cp prebuilt/wacom_drv.o_4.2kernel2.6 /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/input/wacom_drv.o

and ./configure --enable-xidump=no --enable-wacom --enable-hid 
--enable-wacomdrv=no
and make...

Now if I understand the README correct, the make process will automatically 
alter some of the modules found in /usr/src/linux and recompile these?

So I did cd /usr/src/linux;make modules_install

But still I end up with :
[dmesg|grep wacom]
drivers/usb/core/usb.c: registered new driver wacom
drivers/usb/input/wacom.c: v1.30:USB Wacom Graphire and Wacom Intuos tablet 
driver
[...]

and no detection of the tablet..

Where have I failed?

[Linuxwacom-discuss] kernel 2.6.1 reports events on psaux

[Luke Q <lca...@mi...>]

I have an odd problem: 

My graphire3 works perfectly in kernel 2.6.1; absolute positioning,
pressure sensitivity, the works. The problem is that the kernel is also
reporting events from the tablet on /dev/psaux, which means that when
I'm drawing in the GIMP, the stylus cursor AND the core pointer are
moving around at the same time, with different speeds. This makes
drawing somewhat unpredictable because avery once in a while, the core
pointer will wander away and do something I didn't want it to do.

My question is: does anybody know how to get the kernel to stop
reporting tablet events on /dev/psaux? ..or possibly what device file
will report ONLY ps/2 events?

[Linuxwacom-discuss] Problem with XInput on gtk 2.2.4 with xfree 4.3.0

[Martin P. <xar...@sw...>]

Hello, I've come across a problem with my setup with a Graphire 2 USB on 
my Slackware system.

I've had no real problem whatsoever, the tablet works as soon as I plug 
it in, running on original 2.6.0 kernel module (I've tried building the 
beta driver 0.5.4, but it won't load). I've tried both original 
XFree-module and the version supplied on linuxwacom.sf.net. The tablet 
worked as an extra mouse in X, and it was not until i recompiled 
GTK+-2.2.4 myself with (--enable-xinput) that I got pressure-sensitivity 
and all the neat features going.

However, when I install the custom-built GTK2-package, I cannot start my 
movie player, Totem. After much cursing and looking, it seems like there 
is a bug in libXi 4.3.x that causes this... See this url for details: 
http://bugs.xfree86.org/show_bug.cgi?id=260 . Appeareantly, this has 
been resolved, and hopefully it should work now.

However, I though I should post it, in case someone else encounters it. 
I used a precompiled gnome package called dropline-gnome, witch did not 
have Xinput enabled as default.

System specs:

Distribution: Slackware 9.1
Kernel: 2.6.0 stable
Desktop distribution: Dropline-gnome

GTK and various libraries, apps rebuild from source during error finding 
session related to this issue.

I hacked the CVS sources a bit to work with my Intuos2 tablet; I posted my 
patch to the list a few days ago.

However, it looks like the 2.4 enhancements haven't yet been rolled into the 
Wacom 2.6 sources.

[Linuxwacom-discuss] graphire 3 on kernel 2.6.1-rc2

[Carl E. <ca...@go...>]

Hi,

I am having trouble getting things together on my system with
linux-2.6.1rc2 and my new graphire 3.

The wacom.o that comes with the kernel does not detect the tablet,
instead the hid driver occupies it. Which order I load the modules in
does not make any difference.

So I tried compiling linuxwacom-0.5.2-beta to use that wacom.o, but it
will not compile :

xidump.o(.text+0x14db): In function `RawRunAccel':
/gosig/users/calle/src/linuxwacom-0.5.2-beta/src/xidump.c:762: undefined
reference to `sqrt'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

And with ./configure --enable-xidump=no it instead fails at:

wacom.c: På toppnivå:
wacom.c:840: varning: initiering from incompatible pointer type
wacom.c:841: varning: initiering from incompatible pointer type
make[3]: *** [wacom.o] Fel 1

which I guess means that there is no support for linux 2.6.1-rc2... But
is there any support for linux 2.6 at all?

I would appreciate some help, I am currently stuck with hid + ImPS/2 and
cannot use absolute positioning, which is kind of the purpose of this
thing.. :)

Carl Ekman

That's what I did over christmas and it works (with no visible problems to

[Linuxwacom-discuss] Programmable Wacom features

[Paul M F. <pa...@qu...>]

I'm trying to set up my wife's Graphire II under Debian Linux stable (X
4.3, kernel 2.4.18). All except the wheel on the wheelmouse appears to
work, however...

It appears that the events of the stylus map such that the following is
true:

Actual Event                      Registered Event
stylus contact with pad           left click
bottom click on rocker switch     middle click
top click on rocker switch        right click

My wife tells me that under Windows, there is a Wacom utility that makes
events programmable. She want the bottom click on the rocker to be a
double-left-click, but there doesn't appear to be any way to make this
happen. So...

1) Is there an easy way to make this happen?
2) Would such a thing require hacking wacom_drv.c (just to make the
double-click thing happen)?
3) Is there such a "programmable events utility" planned or in the
works?

I have just changed to the 2.6 kernel.

The 2.4 wacom.c has a number of fixes that didn't make it into the 2.6 
wacom.c, especially with respect to tablet features.

I have a 6x8 Intuos2, and can't use the wheel on my 2D mouse.

I don't even see the REL_WHEEL in wacdump.c.

Also, I see a "ParseData: 22 InvalidArgument" message often in wacdump.

I did a quick hack, making a new "type" of tablet for my tablet, and setting 
the features differently.

Also, I pulled a fix from the 2.4 code for the REL_WHEEL (should do 
input_report_rel not input_report_abs; fixed direction).

These two combined gave me a driver that seems to work.

Attached is a patch against the CVS sources for the src/2.6/wacom.c file.

However, it's just a hack, and the real fixes from the 2.4 line need to be 
applied, especially since 2.6.0 is now the current stable kernel...

Thanks,

Have you got the right kernel drivers installed?

Specifically, you might try loading the 'input', 'mousedev', and 'evdev' 
drivers (and of course the 'wacom' driver) if you haven't already.

Ah, you have 0.4.1. Do you see any indications in the kernel message log that 
the driver recognizes your tablet? I believe that some of the Graphire 
support was added later than 0.4.1.

You might try the latest CVS sources or tarball...

[Linuxwacom-discuss] volito problems

[derek h. <de...@x-...>]

Hi all,

I have just been trying to deal with the crappy quality of my new Volito
tablet. I tested it against my girlfriend's Graphire 2 in Illustrator on
her Mac, and found that while the Graphire 2 gives smooth lines, the
lines from the Volito break up, with gaps where the tablet looses
"connection" with the pen.

I can verify this under Linux, because I use [usually *her* tablet] for
a lot of graphical patching in Pure Data. The Graphire 2 responds as a
mouse should, but the Volito simply doesn't "keep hold of" [i.e. select
and drag] things the way I expect. I bought this tablet to save my
mouse-arm from further torment, so the whole thing is pretty damned
disappointing! From what I understand, the Volito is pretty much a
Graphire 3 but with a cheaper-made chipset at half the price, so that
should explain the disappointing behaviour.

Part one of this post: don't think you will get anywhere by saving a few
clams and buying the Volito. If you can get ahold of a Graphire 2 for a
few dollars/euros/whatever more, do it!

Part two of this post: I wanted to see if the "Threshold" setting in my
X11 config would change this behavior. I compiled, tested and installed
the 0.4.1 version of the drivers from the Linux Wacom Project site with
no problems. However, my tablet does not show up on /dev/input/event0! I
can cat it at /dev/input/mice and /dev/input/mouse1, but
/dev/input/event0 does not exist. So how can I modify the Threshold
setting of the tablet, if I don't know the device? Setting Threshold for
/dev/input/mice and /dev/input/mouse1 don't make any real difference.

Other thought: could it be that the resolution of the Volito is just 
really bad? Would that account for the jumps in the drawing program and 
the inability to accurately grab ahold of small points in Pure Data?

Can anybody point me in the right direction? Or should I Ebay this sorry
little thing?

thx + happy new year,
Derek

[Linuxwacom-discuss] 0.5.4-beta released

[Ping L. <pin...@ho...>]

I posted a new beta release at https://sourceforge.net/projects/linuxwacom. 
This release supports kernel 2.4.22 and 2.6.0.  Four wacom_drv.o files can 
be found under the prebuilt directory for XFree86  4.2 & 4.3 and kernel 2.4 
& 2.6, respectively.  General Tablet PC support is also in this release. 
Please read the ChangeLog for detail.

For driver configuration and installation details, please read the README 
under linuxwacom-0.5.4.-beta.

I can not update linuxwacom website since I don't have permission to modify 
the files. I am still waiting for John to grant me the write permission.

For those who submitted bugs and patches, please verify if this release 
fixed the bugs you reported or works the way as your patch supported.

Thank you. Wish you all have a happy holiday!

[Linuxwacom-discuss] Wacom on Xandros2

[Michael C. P. <mcp...@sb...>]

Can anyone help me?  I would like to compile the latest driver for Xandros2,
it is a debian distro.  It currently has the wacom driver, but I think it
may be an older stable release.  Is this fairly simple? Should I just be
able to compile the new one and then replace the old driver.  What is needed
to do it and what steps should I use?  I've never done this before, well I
did once but with step by step help for Mandrake 9.1.  Is debian very
different?

Any help you can provide it greatly appreciated,

RE: [Linuxwacom-discuss] Fedora

[Ping L. <pin...@ho...>]

Below are the new features/fixes I made to CVS since Sept. I am waiting for 
John to pass me the web script so I can update linuxwacom.sf.net with my 
changes:

2003-12-15
        * Fixed a wacom.c bug for 2.6
        * Added evdev.c to src/2.6 to attach replugged device
        * Updated README

2003-12-10
        * Support kernel 2.6.0

2003-11-26
        * Support Tablet PC Buttons. Default is off.
          Usage:
                xsetwacom set $device tpcbutton 1  (to turn it on)
                xsetwacom set $device tpcbutton 0  (to turn it off)
        * Turned configure option "--disable-wacom" as default
        * Added wacom_drv.o into the install script so wacom_drv.o
                will be installed along with the other executables
                and libs when "make install" is issued.
                This enables the systems "identical" to the development
                system to install the Wacom X driver related items
                without rebuilding them on the targeted system.
                Where "identical" means both systems have the same version
                of XFree86, tcl, and tk.
          Usage:
                After building and testing the package on the development
                system, copy the whole package directory onto the
                "identical" system, then
                cd $package_home_dir
                su
                make install

2003-11-18
        * Support general Tablet PC (ISDV4)
        * Added a new xsetwacom command for mult-monitor setup:
                xsetwacom set $device mmmonitor $value
                $value  0: let cursor move across monitors (default)
                        1: cursor will stay in the monitor it was

2003-11-10
        * Support wacomcpl with user specified tcl/tk src dirs
        * Moved kernel files to 2.4 and 2.4.22 for easy upgrading
        * Refined filters

2003-10-09
        * Support kernel-2.4.22

2003-09-30
        * Fixed TwinView relative mapping error

2003-09-24
        * Support TwinView with different Screen resolutions
        * Added a new option, "TVResolution", to configure each resolution

2003-09-22
        * Support TwinView Cintiq calibration
        * Enable Screenno Option for TwinView setup
        * Minor serial tablet and kernel 2.6 support fixes


Please read README for build and install changes. Contact me directly if you 
have questions.

Ping.

Re: [Linuxwacom-discuss] usb reconnects

[Martin R. <mar...@gm...>]

Hi,

I "solved" the usb reconnect problem with a dirty hack in wacom.c so the
input device is only opened once. The patch breaks support for more than
one wacom device connected, wastes cpu cycles even if the device is not
used, and if built as a module it probably cannot be removed any more.

It works. I still don't know what the clean solution would be.

My changes follow (for the archive only, in case someone has the same
problem).

bye,
Martin
