[linuxwacom-announce] [ANNOUNCE] input-wacom 0.27.0

[Jason G. <kil...@gm...>]

The 0.27.0 release of our "input-wacom" kernel driver backports package is
now available for download. This release rolls in numerous updates which
are already available upstream, as well as a few that should be appearing
in the soon-to-be released Linux 4.0 and 4.1. Of particular note is support
for the Cintiq 27QHD (and 27QHD touch), DTU-1031X, and Bamboo Pad tablets.
Also, there is preliminary support for sensors which connect over the I2C
bus (e.g. in recent tablet PCs).

This release also slightly changes the build process. Whereas before it
was possible to configure and build the driver with a single command, you
must now run `./configure` and `make` as seperate steps. Along with this,
it is now possible to run `make install` to have the driver automatically
installed to your kernel modules directory (no more manual copying!)

Users of very recent tablets, as well as those interested in getting the
latest upstream bugfixes without running an upstream kernel can download
and install this package from either of the links below.
