Hi J.,
Do you actually mean calibrating or do you mean the stylus doesn't rotate?
Hi J.,

Maybe I do mean the stylus does not rotate.
Thanks for the quick reply...J.
Alright, some rotation methods are at the Rotation HOW TO. A method 1 script or method 3 should work for you.
As far as calibration, that should happen automatically when you rotate. But you do need to be calibrated in one orientation (usu. landscape). If that's a problem do you have an old .xinitrc from wacomcpl that shows your calibration?
Thanks, Favux...I will give the scripts a try...I'm sure I can track down a copy of my xintrc file if need be. Man, you're fast!! Thanks again...

Hi,
I'm running 3 monitors under ATI Catalyst (if that matters) under Maverick with n Intuos4. I've tried the "ScreenNo" and "MMonitor" options in the config file to lock the stylus to the center screen and haven't seen any results. I know X is reading the config file because when I tried the "twinview" option, the cursor got locked to one side of the screen. Any pointers?
hi,
I am on Karmic Koala - 9.10. Just got a new Bamboo 'Pen and Touch' (CTH460). I was hoping for plug-and-play support in Ubuntu but stuck right now.
I am not sure what I should do to have it working; I know about these sources:
HOW TO: Install a LinuxWacom Kernel Driver for Tablet PC's
HOW TO Set Up the Bamboo Pen & Touch in Lucid & Maverick and Other Wacom Tablets.
and
the Ubuntu community documentation.
All I have done so far is this:
What do I have to do next? Follow the directions in the first howto or the second one or something else entirely, which is suited for Karmic Koala?sudo apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-wacom wacom-tools
thanks,
Hi oobu,
Welcome to Ubuntu forums!
For Karmic follow the first HOW TO to compile linuxwacom paying attention to the directions for Karmic. I'm thinking step 3 b) about the hid-ids is no longer needed. I think the Ubuntu dev.s fixed it. If so you'd just do step 3 a) like everyone else. Let me know if I'm right.
You probably want to remove wacom-tools first though. Compiling linuxwacom will get you the latest version of wacom tools and will include wacomcpl.
You don't need xf86-input-wacom with Karmic.

In case anyone else has a serial Wacom tablet and wants to get it to work on 10.10:
The patch mentioned earlier here does not work with the xf86-input-wacom version in 10.10, but you can patch, build and use xf86-input-wacom-0.10.6, if you additionally apply the patch found on http://www.mail-archive.com/linuxwac.../msg01079.html
Hi thorwil,
Wow! Nice work.
So xf86-input-wacom 0.10.6 with the serial tablet patch wouldn't work with Maverick's Xserver 1.9 until you used the additional patch? Is that correct?
Yes, corect. To be precise, xf86-input-wacom 0.10.6 does not build without the additional patch.
