    Re: HOW TO Set Up the Bamboo Pen & Touch in Lucid


    Thank you Favux

    I ran the commands in step II re-clone the xf86-input-wacom git, but rebooting or hot plugging the tablet still does not run .xsetwacom.sh. Not a big deal as I can run it from the command line.

    I did get the .toggle-touch.sh to run from a tablet button. I needed to assign a keyboard short cut (f12) to run that program and then assign the shortcut key to a tablet button in .xsetwacom.sh.

    I would like to make the stylus tip button take more force to act as a left mouse button. Changing the ClickForce parameter over the entire range of 1 to 21 doesn't seem to make a difference. Has the value for that been changed to a hard coded value? I tried Threshold, but got a parameter no defined error when i tried to set that. I may just need to learn to have a light touch.

    Unless you have a suggestion on something else to try, I will learn to live with it the way it is working now.

    Thanks again.

    Tom Oakes

    but rebooting or hot plugging the tablet still does not run .xsetwacom.sh.
    Well if right clicking on it and the Execute as program box is checked in the Permissions tab in Properties all I can come up with is something is not working right in your Startup Applications.

    I checked it when writing the scripts and it seemed to work correctly. Maybe something has been changed. You could check in 'man xsetwacom' if by any chance something is mentioned. A few pages earlier someone said using a clickforce way outside the range, I think it was something like 2048, worked. I figured that sounded like a bug. Worth trying anyway.

    By the way a commit from 8 days ago should have fixed the get for button maps.

    thanks.. really..
    I guess today I'll try to install the tablet in the live distr. and see if might not be something related to old files hanging around in /home.
    thanks again anyhow.

    Re: HOW TO Set Up the Bamboo Pen & Touch in Lucid

    sigh.. should I give up? tablet is working fine on other pc's and under other OS. This pizz me off a lot.
    so the status is: module get loaded, tablet is listed by lsusb, and in dmesg. Is properly assigned to a device, but X is somehow ignoring it. There's someway to force the recognition event? or to rerun the detection? or to manually edit xorg.conf? please don't let me down, it's driving me crazy...

    Re: HOW TO Set Up the Bamboo Pen & Touch in Lucid

    what does the 50 in front of the config file means?

    since
    Code:
    ls -l /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-*
    -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 171 2010-09-23 04:20 /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-synaptics.conf
    -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 115 2010-08-09 19:50 /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-vmmouse.conf
    -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 825 2010-11-07 14:27 /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-wacom.conf
    can't be I've to change that number? or is just a category?

    wait.. looks like there is not an /dev/input/wacom device. Should I create it manually? how?

    Re: HOW TO Set Up the Bamboo Pen & Touch in Lucid

    looks like I've find something, but I'm not sure about editing the file. I'll try anyhow:
    point is my device id is:
    Code:
    Bus 005 Device 002: ID 056a:00da Wacom Co., Ltd
    and in 69-xserver-xorg-input-wacom.rules the id doesn't match. Trying to edit the table now. If you know a reason for me to don't try please tell!!

    Hi mrernia,

    Sorry, I've been involved in several projects.

    You've solved the mystery. What's the whole model name of your tablet? There's a special edition in there somewhere isn't there?

    Your model is new and hasn't been added to the kernel driver wacom.ko yet. Changing the wacom.rules isn't going to help. Besides you only really need that if your using the xorg.conf and want a symlink.

    We'd have to try adding your model to the wacom.ko source code and hope that's enough.

    Re: HOW TO Set Up the Bamboo Pen & Touch in Lucid

    Sorry, I meant to say to the wcmUSB.c WacomModelDesc table. We'd want to add it to this section which starts at line #400:
    Code:
    	{ 0x65, 2540, 2540, &usbBamboo     }, /* Bamboo */
    	{ 0x69, 1012, 1012, &usbBamboo1    }, /* Bamboo1 */ 
    	{ 0xD1, 2540, 2540, &usbBamboo     }, /* CTL-460 */
    	{ 0xD4, 2540, 2540, &usbBamboo     }, /* CTH-461 */
    	{ 0xD3, 2540, 2540, &usbBamboo     }, /* CTL-660 */
    	{ 0xD2, 2540, 2540, &usbBamboo     }, /* CTL-461/S */
    	{ 0xD0, 2540, 2540, &usbBamboo     }, /* Bamboo Touch */
    right after the touch I guess.

    So is it's resolutioon 2540 x 2540?

    Re: HOW TO Set Up the Bamboo Pen & Touch in Lucid

    I feel bad, this is my fault. I should have picked it up on your posts #278 and #280 (model cth461/L). I knew I was missing something obvious.

    The wcmUSB.c is in linuxwacom-0.8.8-10/src/xdrv. Unless you have a different resolution to tell me try adding this line:
    Code:
    	{ 0xDA, 2540, 2540, &usbBamboo     }, /* CTH-461/L */
    like so:
    Code:
    	{ 0x65, 2540, 2540, &usbBamboo     }, /* Bamboo */
    	{ 0x69, 1012, 1012, &usbBamboo1    }, /* Bamboo1 */ 
    	{ 0xD1, 2540, 2540, &usbBamboo     }, /* CTL-460 */
    	{ 0xD4, 2540, 2540, &usbBamboo     }, /* CTH-461 */
    	{ 0xD3, 2540, 2540, &usbBamboo     }, /* CTL-660 */
    	{ 0xD2, 2540, 2540, &usbBamboo     }, /* CTL-461/S */
    	{ 0xD0, 2540, 2540, &usbBamboo     }, /* Bamboo Touch */
    	{ 0xDA, 2540, 2540, &usbBamboo     }, /* CTH-461/L */
    and then recompile using, once you're in the linuxwacom-0.8.8-10 directory:
    Code:
    make clean
    
    ./configure --enable-wacom --prefix=/usr
    
    make
    
    sudo cp ./src/2.6.30/wacom.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/input/tablet/wacom.ko
    
    sudo depmod -a
    Reboot and cross your fingers.

    Edit: Never mind. I'm wrong again. It has to be the wacom.ko. Besides this would be in xf86-input-wacom. Crud. What am I thinking?
