Install Wizardpen driver for Iball tablet

[huit_six]

Hi huit_six,

Interesting. "AlwaysCore" and "SendCoreEvent" are obsolete with Lucid's Xserver 1.7. But that's the first time I've seen it cause a problem. You can just remove them, like you did.

Hello Favux,
Thank you for the information, so it could be a bug from the installer of the proprietary ATI driver ? I have to add that it's a fresh Lucid install.

I think I will try to move the xorg.conf to see if the tablet works well, but I fear that my dual screen will not work.
I'll see it when i'll be back home.

@Robbyx : Don't have any solution but you could try to launch a lucid live cd and install the tablet to see if it works and if the problem comes from the fact that you upgraded rather than fresh installed.

I recently switched from ubuntu 9 to 10.04 by installing in a new partition. These install instructions worked fine on 9 and I am attempting to replicate the results on 10.

However, after this line

./configure --with-xorg-module-dir=/usr/lib/xorg/modules
        make && sudo make install

It produces the following errors at the bottom of the output.
I simply don't know where to go from here. I've googled the errors only to find people not experiencing the same thing.

Any help would be sincerely appreciated.

I notice there is a package called xserver-xorg-input-wizardpen in the synaptic package manager. Should I be using that instead of this guide?

[Favux]

Hi enixon,

For Lucid (10.4) you want to use the xserver-xorg-input-wizardpen - 0.7.3-1ubuntu1 driver at: https://launchpad.net/~doctormo/+arc...dpen/+packages

[enixon]

Should I be downloading the deb file from that link and using the deb installer, or downloading the file and using the directions on this forum with the new version instead of the old? Or maybe just use synaptic package manager? I've done all three and none seem to work. Is this common, It must be some thing stupid I'm doing. Thanks for your time.

[Favux]

The deb should be fine.

Maybe you're not matching in the 70-wizardpen.conf in /usr/lib/X11/xorg.conf.d/.

[enixon]

OK I found it, this is what it says. What is supposed to match within this file to what?

Section "InputClass"
Identifier "wizardpen"
MatchIsTablet "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
MatchVendor "UC-LOGIC|KYE Systems|Ace Cad"
Driver "wizardpen"
EndSection
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "wizardpen ignore mouse dev"
MatchIsTablet "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/mouse*"
MatchVendor "UC-LOGIC|KYE Systems|Ace Cad"
Driver ""
EndSection

Hi,

I'm trying to get a Trust TB-6300 (internal "UC-LOGIC Tablet WP8060U") to run on Debian Squeeze and one of my problems is that all instructions I found are for some Ubuntu version rather than for some xorg/udev/whatever version.

/var/log/Xorg.0.log says:

(II) config/udev: Adding input device "UC-LOGIC Tablet WP8060U" (/dev/input/event3)
(II) LoadModule: "wacom"
(II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/wacom_drv.so

(--) "UC-LOGIC Tablet WP8060U": using pressure threshold of 61 for button 1
(--) "UC-LOGIC Tablet WP8060U": Wacom Unknown USB tablet speed=38400 maxX=16000 maxY=12000 maxZ=1023 resX=1016 resY=1016  tilt=enabled
(--) "UC-LOGIC Tablet WP8060U": top X=0 top Y=0 bottom X=16000 bottom Y=12000 resol X=1016 resol Y=1016

This is strange for two reasons: it uses the driver "wacom" while it should use "wizardpen". And it does not configure /dev/input/mouse1 as a mouse (which I think it should). As far as I understand it, the driver should (in my case still) be determined by /lib/udev/rules.d/67-xorg-wizardpen.rules which reads:

# to configure the active area, pressure sensitivity and other settings see
# /etc/udev/rules.d/70-xorg-wizardpen-settings.rules

Indeed lsusb gives:

What am I missing? Thanks in advance for any help!

Ok, now I upgraded xorg and it seems to notice the file

/usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/70-wizardpen.conf

I am now in the state that is already richly documented: cursor stays in the upper left corner. Is it correct that this has not yet been resolved?

Edit: setting MaxX etc. in /etc/X11/xorg.conf worked.

[enixon]

I ended up reinstalling ubuntu 9. I simply couldn't live without a tablet. Thanks any way for your help.
