Howdy all,

 

A1bertFish the newbie here, looking for some assistance in getting my Wacom tablet running under mdk 9.1. I tried to follow the tutorial on http://linuxwacom.sourceforge.net/, but after make but before install, i tried an insmod to test and got this:

 

[root@localhost src]# insmod ./wacom.o

./wacom.o: unresolved symbol input_event_Re1d783ea

./wacom.o: unresolved symbol input_unregister_device_R87afc051

./wacom.o: unresolved symbol input_register_device_R9b3f261b

 

Any ideas what's up?

I have the old RS232 serial port version of the tablet and it was detected on install and worked fine on LM8.1.

 

Since then I have always just copied the LM8.1 configuration into my XF86Config-4 files.

 

Here are the relevant parts of my XF86Config-4 setup:

 

Section "InputDevice"
   Identifier	"Stylus1"
   Driver	"wacom"
   Option	"Type" "stylus"
   Option	"Device" "/dev/ttyS1"
   Option	"Mode" "Absolute"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
   Identifier	"Eraser1"
   Driver	"wacom"
   Option	"Type" "eraser"
   Option	"Device" "/dev/ttyS1"
   Option	"Mode" "Absolute"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
   Identifier	"Cursor1"
   Driver	"wacom"
   Option	"Type" "cursor"
   Option	"Device" "/dev/ttyS1"
   Option	"Mode" "Relative"
EndSection

 

Section "ServerLayout"
   Identifier "layout1"
   InputDevice "Keyboard1" "CoreKeyboard"
   InputDevice "Mouse1" "CorePointer"
   InputDevice "Stylus1" "AlwaysCore"
   InputDevice "Eraser1" "AlwaysCore"
   InputDevice "Cursor1" "AlwaysCore"
   Screen "screen1"
EndSection

 

If you have a USB version then I can't help you. Sorry.

STOP OH DEAR GOD STOP!!!!!!!!

 

 

Okay, now that I have your attention, read this and understand. You absolutely possatively and without any possible doubt do not need to compile any sort of driver for that tablet if you are running any version of the kernel that is even remotely current. It is allready in ALL standard kernels and you don't need to compile or install a thing.

 

All you need to do is set up the tablet in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4

 

That's all

 

nothing else.

 

I have one and it works very well.

 

 

If you just want to use it as a mouse, you can set it up as a generic usb mouse and it will work fine useing the wacom module.

 

Search the internet for an X config for it. It REALY shouldn't be that hard, if you can't find one let me know and I'll post mine.

VeeDubb - Thanks for your input, I'll go Googling tomorrow night (it's late and I have class in the morning). If you wouldn't mind posting your config anyways, it would be much appreciated (by me and any other newbie that comes across this post later).

 

Glitz - Thanks for the link. I think I already checked that out...like I said, I'm just a dumb ol' newbie.

Here is my XF86Config-4. I have the mouse and both nds of the pen working as pointing devices for apps and core pointers with correct scrolling direction and working pressure sensativity. Here is my very robust X config
