Anyone had luck in making wacom tablet working in kanotix?
I tried with my dist-upgrade'd kanotix version (kernel 2.6.18.1.kanotix-1) but even if:
- it get recognised as usb
- it get the /dev/input/wacom correct link
- I change xorg.conf file as wacom site suggests
I could not even get it mouve my mouse (not to talk about pressure sensitivity).
Thanks for any feedback. |

*Almost* solved.
It seems that the issue is coming from kernel 2.6.18.1.kanotix-1 or from some missing config linked to it.
I tried both with Kanotix 2006-01-RC4 and with 2005-04 with kernel 2.6.18.1 and in both case the tablet is not even making move anything.
Switching down at boot to:
Linux KanotixBox 2.6.16.16-kanotix-1 #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat May 13 03:12:36 CEST 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
was enough to make all the changes applied to xorg.conf work.
Here the part you have to be sure to have in order to make wacom penpartner2 USB (FT-0230-UV1.4-2) work:
in Section "ServerLayout" be sure to have:
#LP
InputDevice "stylus" "SendCoreEvents"
InputDevice "eraser" "SendCoreEvents"
InputDevice "cursor" "SendCoreEvents"
InputDevice "pad"
#c
inside xorg.conf be sure to have
###################################### 20061127
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "cursor"
Driver "wacom"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom"
Option "Type" "cursor"
Option "USB" "on"
Option "Threshold" "10"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "stylus"
Driver "wacom"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom"
Option "Type" "stylus"
Option "USB" "on"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "eraser"
Driver "wacom"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom"
Option "Type" "eraser"
Option "USB" "on"
Option "Threshold" "10"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "pad"
Driver "wacom"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom"
Option "Type" "pad"
Option "USB" "on"
EndSection
###################################### end
Inside
Section "Device"
, in case you have an ATI X300 (my laptop) be sure to have:
# The following line is auto-generated by KNOPPIX mkxf86config
Driver "fglrx"
Option "UseInternalAGPGART" "no"
Option "VideoOverlay" "on"
Option "OpenGLOverlay" "off"
Option "MonitorLayout" "LVDS, AUTO"
VendorName "All"
BoardName "All"
# BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
Then (e.g. in Gimp) go to
Preferences->Input Device->Extended input device
and be sure to have
cursor
stylus
eraser
enabled.
Pressure sensitivity also works. |
