Re: [Aiptektablet-users] Compiling gaiptek

[<ben...@ug...>]

I'm getting a lot more spam recently. I have the feeling it started when spam
was posted to this list. Can one of the maintainers clean up the user list? Or
is it not related?

Antonio,

for your question, go in sourceforge mailing list
aip...@li... over the mails of Rene.

One has a description of what must be done. However, it entails doing kernel
patches, compile, ... Not for non-experienced users.
If the driver is (ever) accepted upstream, it will be as simple as plug and
play, but now, if it works, it probably is not because the correct drivers are
found (eg, in ubuntu the wacom/mouse drivers grab the usb mouse/pen movement,
but nothing more, so the tablet behaves like a mouse, but not a very 
good one),
so press events, ... do not work.
