New Wacom Bamboo not working

**TheguywholikesLINUX** · October 15th, 2009

I have started from the beginning, archiving modifying files, recompiling, copying wacom.ko, rmmod'ding, modprob'ing, rebooting. I get two inputs for wacom:

Code:

I get this from /proc/bus/input/devices:

I don't think that matches up.

And here is the output from /var/log/messages

I get not output from any of the /dev/input's

I wonder if my udev rules could have messed anything up...

Hi TheguywholikesLINUX,

Very interesting!! It now sort of looks like the output of a Wacom tablet pc with touch.

Did you install the .fdi in post #176 here?: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=967147&page=18

If not I wonder what would happen if you added a touch subsection into it? Would you be interested in trying this test .fdi? Follow the same instructions as in post #176 above.

Really we ought to check lshal and see if 'if0' is assigned to the stylus and 'if1' to touch in the "input.originating_device". But my guess is that they are.

If touch did work, it obviously wouldn't be multi-touch. But still cool.

**TheguywholikesLINUX** · October 15th, 2009

I have tried the new .fdi, rebooted, and it all seems the same...

Attached is lshal.txt(.bz2)

**_Stefan_3_** · October 15th, 2009

hi,

We discuss about the same problem in the German ubuntuusers forum.

Thanks to kgingeri, now it works (almost).

The tablet is now detected and you are able to move the cursor but no 'clicks' are recognized (just in the first few seconds you connect the tablet to the usb port). Anymore, mousemoves seem to be like scrolling with the middle mousekey (gnome is continuously switching between the virtual desktops).

Can you please attach /var/log/Xorg.0.log? It looks like the device is there, but xorg did not like the configuration.

The lshal information that you provided does not seem to reflect the .fdi changes because it is showing that the device is assigned to evdev.

@_Stefan_3_ or kgingeri, is it possible to have a diff of the original source and the changed source? It might help verify what needs to be changed.

I have attached my Xorg.0.log file

**Ayuthia** · October 15th, 2009

@_Stefan_3_ - Thanks for the diff. It looks like your device is a 0xD4 (CTL-460) and TheguywholikesLINUX is a 0xD1 (CTH-460). It should be interesting to see if there are that many differences between the two.

This is showing that xorg is trying to use the evdev driver instead of wacom. It is failing so it removes the evdev driver and xorg is not doing anything for that device.

What this also means is that xorg did not pick up the information from your .fdi file with Favux's changes. Do you have anything defined in /etc/X11/xorg.conf for this?

**kgingeri** · October 15th, 2009

I'm 'listening in' but have very little time to interject anything for a bit. Looks like there is good info flow at the moment anyway. I look forward to having time to spend on this all again!

**_Stefan_3_** · October 15th, 2009

I am a bit confused about my input devices which were created.
1)
wacom -> event8
2)
wacom-touch-> event9.

I dont have the one with touch...
