#277 Bamboo Pab CTH-301/K not supported by linux kernel

[馬杰鴻]

New Bamboo Pad CTH-301/K doesn't seem to be supported by linux kernel 3.18.6 and before.

lsusb reveals that its ID is 056a:0318.

Therefore, it is not usable as for now.

Would it be possible to add a driver for this model into the kernel, and perhaps also back into input-wacom?

[Jason Gerecke]

The pen portion of that device should be supported by the Linux 3.19 kernel. We plan to add the necessary patches to input-wacom 0.27 as well, but it will only be able to work with Linux 3.17 and later.

We're still trying to work out how to get the touch interface to work properly.

• Bamboo Pad pen support accepted into Linus' repository on the "master" branch (commit 61e9e7e). Expected release: Linux 4.0.
• Bamboo Pad touch support accepted into Jiri's HID repository on the "for-4.1/wacom" branch (commit 8c97a76). Expected release: Linux 4.1.

• Bamboo Pad support (pen and touch) is now present in input-wacom 0.27.0
