Hey!
Cheers for this! I'm so chuffed i got my graphics tablet to work! One step further away from Windows
OK, so I'm stuck at the calibration thing. I honestly have no clue what to do now. How do I edit the .fdi file? Where do I put the whole parameter data? I'm not into programming, and I'm kinda new to using Ubuntu, but I sure want to have a Tablet with pressure sensibility, because I'm getting quite pissed off at my own incompatibility with this whole problem. Could anyone help me out?
Worked on debian lenny and ubuntu hardy in 10 minutes or less for WP8060U
ROCKIN!

With gratitude and respect The knyazzz.
(after reading my post ive found a mistake... working on it for now...)
after installing deb packege i received 99-x11-wizardpen.fdi with wrong device name.
changing name to correct one makes pen working, but in a very strange way
no movement, but touch and button is working like "back" and "forward" buttons in firefox...

Dear Kensav
1.How do i edit the .fdi file?
2.Where do you want to put the whole parameter data?Code:gksudo gedit /etc/hal/fdi/policy/99-x11-wizardpen.fdi Code:
Place the whole parameter data in /etc/hal/fdi/policy/99-x11-wizardpen.fdi
Hope I have answered all your questions

Hi Knyazzz
Well It is understood that your driver is installed properly.
I think your problem might be in .fdi file.
Well please do the following
1. Please edit the whole .fdi file by typing the following command
2. Paste the following passage in your .fdi fileCode:gksudo gedit /etc/hal/fdi/policy/99-x11-wizardpen.fdi
I hope it should work.Code:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?> <deviceinfo version="0.2"> <device> <!-- This MUST match with the name of your tablet obtained --> <!-- in Step 2 specified previously --> <match key="info.product" contains="UC-LOGIC Tablet WP5540U"> <merge key="input.x11_driver" type="string">wizardpen</merge> <merge key="input.x11_options.SendCoreEvents" type="string">true</merge> <!-- Modify these configuration accordingly --> <!-- See CONFIGURATION OPTIONS section for the full-set of --> <!-- configurable options --> <merge key="input.x11_options.TopX" type="string">5619</merge> <merge key="input.x11_options.TopY" type="string">6554</merge> <merge key="input.x11_options.BottomX" type="string">29405</merge> <merge key="input.x11_options.BottomY" type="string">29671</merge> <merge key="input.x11_options.MaxX" type="string">29405</merge> <merge key="input.x11_options.MaxY" type="string">29671</merge> <merge key="info.product" type="string">stylus</merge> <merge key="input.x11_options.SendCoreEvents" type="string">true</merge> </match> </device> </deviceinfo>

Hi, Im having problems installing a Genius PenSketch 9x12 tablet but the only thing working is the mouse buttons on the cordless mouse that came with it... The mouse doesn't pick up movement and the pen doesn't work
I followed the instructions on the Tablet Setup Wizardpen Howto
Code:cat /sys/bus/usb/devices/*/product 9x12 Tablet EHCI Host Controller OHCI Host Controller OHCI Host ControllerCode:ls /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/wizardpen_drv.* /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/wizardpen_drv.la /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/wizardpen_drv.soAnd the .fdi fileCode:grep -i name /proc/bus/input/devices N: Name="Power Button (FF)" N: Name="Power Button (CM)" N: Name="Sleep Button (CM)" N: Name="Macintosh mouse button emulation" N: Name="AT Translated Set 2 keyboard" N: Name=" 9x12 Tablet" N: Name="PC Speaker" N: Name="ImPS/2 Generic Wheel Mouse"
Code:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?> <deviceinfo version="0.2"> <device> <!-- This MUST match with the name of your tablet obtained --> <!-- in Step 2 specified previously --> <match key="info.product" contains="9x12 Tablet"> <merge key="input.x11_driver" type="string">wizardpen</merge> <merge key="input.x11_options.SendCoreEvents" type="string">true</merge> <!-- Modify these configuration accordingly --> <!-- See CONFIGURATION OPTIONS section for the full-set of --> <!-- configurable options --> <merge key="input.x11_options.TopX" type="string">5619</merge> <merge key="input.x11_options.TopY" type="string">6554</merge> <merge key="input.x11_options.BottomX" type="string">29405</merge> <merge key="input.x11_options.BottomY" type="string">29671</merge> <merge key="input.x11_options.MaxX" type="string">29405</merge> <merge key="input.x11_options.MaxY" type="string">29671</merge> <merge key="info.product" type="string">stylus</merge> <merge key="input.x11_options.SendCoreEvents" type="string">true</merge> </match> </device> </deviceinfo>And dmesg outputCode:sudo /etc/init.d/rc.local start Udev did NOT create /dev/tablet-event = tablet NOT present! - Tablet-driver disabled
But the funny thing is before i went through the how to the mouse was working fine but the pen wasn'tCode:[ 4.746495] input: 9x12 Tablet as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:03.0/usb2/2-1/2-1:1.0/input/input5 [ 4.760707] generic-usb 0003:5543:0042.0001: input,hidraw0: USB HID v1.10 Mouse [ 9x12 Tablet] on usb-0000:00:03.0-1/input0
Thanks in advance
If Windows is the solution, can we please have the problem back?
