[Linuxwacom-discuss] compiling how-to and wacdump error

[sladi <sve...@ch...>]

Hi!

I'm very happy to be able to use my tablet in Linux! :)

I want to install the drivers and utilities. I followed the how-to until 
2.3. I downloaded the necessary packages so "./configure" finds 
everything (except for the x64 package).
Also configure reports my kernel being 2.6.19 while the kernel source 
found is 2.6.20-15-generic/build. Is this a problem?
What should I do now? I don't understand how to actually compile the 
software.

I'm using Ubuntu Feisty. My Intuos3 A5 Wide works somehow but "wacdump 
./wacom" stopped working (no values change and sometimes it reports an 
error instead of working at all ["Segmentation fault (core dumped)"]).
Otherwise it seems to work fine but I'd like use wacdump to help me 
assign the buttons. Also I don't have the utilities installed.

Part of my xorg.conf is:
Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier      "stylus"
    Driver          "wacom"
    Option            "Device"     "/dev/input/wacom"
    Option            "Type"         "stylus"
    Option            "USB"           "on"
    Option         "KeepShape"     "on"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier      "eraser"
    Driver          "wacom"
    Option            "Device"     "/dev/input/wacom"
    Option            "Type"         "eraser"
    Option            "USB"           "on"
    Option         "KeepShape"     "on"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier      "cursor"
    Driver          "wacom"
    Option            "Device"     "/dev/input/wacom"
    Option            "Type"         "cursor"
    Option            "USB"           "on"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
    Identifier    "pad"    
    Driver        "wacom"
    Option      "Device"         "/dev/input/wacom"
    Option            "Type"      "pad"
    Option            "USB"           "on"
    Option         "ButtonsOnly"     "on"
EndSection
