    Here was go! I would have gotten this earlier but I slept because I was up so late playing with this new toy. These things rock!

    Model Number: CTH-461/S
    Resolution: 2540 lpi
    Pen active area: 5.8 x 3.6 in (147 x 92 mm)
    Touch active area: 4.9 x 3.4 in (125 x 85mm)

    Re: New Wacom Bamboo not working

    BTW - the following was from Alexia at linuxwacom...
    >Your box should have the DPI of your tablet and your tablets active
    area is 5.8 x 3.6 in in size. Wacom says its resolution is 2540dpi so
    X/Y are calcualtable, X is 5.8*2540=14732 and Y is 3.6*2540=9144. It
    has. has 512 steps of pressure, so 511 is correct in the conf.

    Either the kernel-header package isn't complete and lacks a .config, which stores the configuration of the kernel. And this is why you can't compile the kernel module.

    Or the kernel is monolithic? The build process, trying to make the kernel modules, fails when the kernel is monolithic. But the rt kernel isn't monolithic. You'd have to use something like:
    Code:
    ./configure --without-kernel --enable-wacom --prefix=/usr
    But this doesn't build the kernel module you want to build.

    Good thinking. I checked and it was there, reinstalled the headers and tried again. No luck though. I'll be back late tonight and see what's new with everyone else.

    If you are able to find the wacom.ko file in src/2.6.28 and the wacom_drv.so in src/xdrv, you might just go ahead and install it.
    Thanks for pointing that out. I've been checking in the src/2.6.28 ( and everywhere else ) directory but didn't check in src/xdrv. When I compile wacom_drv.so is created though.

    If I remember, I got the warning too but wacom.ko was created fine. Not sure if I sti ll get it or not. I won't be at it tonight - other commitments

    I am not for sure if this will help us figure it out or not, but if it is still not able to make the wacom.ko file, can you post your config.log?

    HOLY CRAP!!!!! I FOUND THE PROBLEM! I think this is called Rubber Ducking.

    As I was pasting in the log, section by section, I noticed an error I hadn't seen before. I bet you'll notice it right away. HAHAHAHA> I am soooo sorry for wasting the time of anyone who was helping me with this.

    Lesson learned: Remove all spaces from the path. The space between "Firefox" and "Downloads" was messing it up!

    The driver was created and I'll try to run it later. I'm late for a movie and I'm getting yelled at by the girl.

    Thanks again!

    Hi,

    I've downloaded the patch and we basically did the same change except for the fact that you added 3 new tablet while I added a single one (CTH-661). I've calculated the resolution of the tablet by taking 2540 DPI * 8.5 and the same with 5.4 which gave me 21648 by 13530. The exact line I've added is the following:

    { "Wacom Bamboo Fun 6x8", 9, 21648, 13530, 1023, 63, WACOM_MO },

    The new tablet is a 1024 pressure levels so that's why I've replaced the 511 by 1023.

    Everything seems to work great and the size of the tablet match the size of my display (well, it is proportional so when I hit a border, I'm at the limit of the tablet as well) so I assume it means I've put the correct max resolution for x and y.

    Now, I have to figure a few things. I've added a few options in xorg.conf in order to be able to select menu and draw in gimp (for example). I've tried using mypaint which is supposed to be sensitive to pressure. Usually I'm unable to draw at all (for an unknown reason yet) but when I got it to draw sooner today, I noticed that there was no pressure at all. It is the same in Xournal.

    I also have to figure why the stylus won't work at all to select object (or draw) when the tablet is added after the computer is booted but it works when I boot with the tablet already plugged in (then, I'm loosing my external mouse instead...)

    There is so numerous possibilities... I'm on a Thinkpad T61 so I have:

    Trackpoint (seems to work all the time, both for movement and selection)
    Touchpad (seems to work all the time, both for movement and selection but movement are really fast (too fast)
    External Microsoft wireless mouse (works fine if the tablet is not connected at boot time but won't work at all if tablet is connected at boot time)
    Tablet (works fine if connected at boot time but will only move if added after the boot (no selection available with the pen point).

    BTW, I never have any of the left button working (I was thinking it was the "pad" config in the xorg.conf file).

    Any idea?

    Thank you.

    Re: New Wacom Bamboo not working

    Well, I read back a few message and found the one on udev. Just for the fun of it, I've removed everything from xorg.conf. Once I rebooted my laptop (with the tablet connected), it was not working at all. If I unplug the tablet and add it back, the cursor is working. The only thing missing is the selection (can't select by clicking with the pen point on the tablet).

    I would prefer this kind of setup if possible as it would be plug & play (except for what seems a bug if booted with the tablet connected). So, if somebody has an idea of how to activate the selection with the tablet when used with udev (instead of modifying the xorg.conf), let me know.

    Thanks.
