Posted: Thu Aug 27, 2015 5:37 pm Post subject: [Solved] Kernel will not load wacom |
|
|
Hello to all at the fourms.
Well I just got done installing Gentoo on my new build (i7 5820k, x99-a MB, 16GiB ram, GTX 980 ti) and my attempt at using my previous installation from my amd system was a bust. So I did a fresh install. The installation seemed to go fine as far as I could tell, but after installing KDE, I have several problems that need to be fix and I have no clue how to do it. So I will start with my Intuos 5 touch wacom tablet not working.
I have edited the kernel multiple times to get it to work, and all I seem to do is stop my all my usb devices from loading at boot (fixed it with running the genkernel to get them to load again).
This is what I have checked in the kernel:
Device Drivers--->/ Input device support---> / <*> Event interface / [*] Tablets---> / <*> wacom protocol 4 serial tablet support
and
Device Drivers---> / HID Drivers---> / Special HID drivers---> / <*> Intuos/Graphire support (USB)
I have installed the wacom drivers, dev-libs/libwacom-0.11, kde-misc/wacomtablet-2.1.0, and x11-drivers/xf86-input-wacom-0.24.0. When I go into my system settings, input devices, wacom tablet, "No tablet device detected"
In my /etc/portage/make.conf: INPUT_DEVICES="evdev keyboard mouse wacom"
I know that my tablet works. I can use it in windows and in the Gentoo live installation disk. I can;t find any articles on how I can fix this.
If anyone knows how to figure this out I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks again.

I have bought a similar one recently.
Quote: | grep -iE "wacom|tablet" /usr/src/linux/.config
CONFIG_INPUT_TABLET=y
CONFIG_TABLET_USB_ACECAD=m
CONFIG_TABLET_USB_AIPTEK=m
CONFIG_TABLET_USB_GTCO=m
# CONFIG_TABLET_USB_HANWANG is not set
CONFIG_TABLET_USB_KBTAB=m
# CONFIG_TABLET_SERIAL_WACOM4 is not set
# CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN_WACOM_W8001 is not set
# CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN_WACOM_I2C is not set
CONFIG_HID_WACOM=m
# CONFIG_FUJITSU_TABLET is not set
|
HID_WACOM is obvious. AFAIR CONFIG_INPUT_TABLET is needed too.
"Device Drivers--->/ Input device support---> / <*> Event interface / [*] Tablets---> / <*> wacom protocol 4 serial tablet support" on the other hand is for legacy hardware, attached to serial port (COM) rather than USB if I get it right. Probably doesn't hurt but you don't need it.
Funny thing is the part that works in linux works better than in windows. (Haven't found time for setting up 3-5 finger gestures yet. Maybe later) |

@szatox, Thanks for the reply.
But I don't know what you mean by this?
Quote: | HID_WACOM is obvious. AFAIR CONFIG_INPUT_TABLET is needed too |
Is this in the kernel, or in the make.config file?
If it is in the kernel, what is the path to the "AFAIR CONFIG_INPUT_TABLET"?
I don't remember seeing this option in the kernel.
So I don't need the "<*> wacom protocol 4 serial tablet support" selected?
Thanks. |

Tefrem34,
Code: | AFAIR CONFIG_INPUT_TABLET is needed too | translates as "As Far As I Recall" CONFIG_INPUT_TABLET is needed too.
CONFIG_INPUT_TABLET is in make menuconfig.
Get into make menuconfig, press / and enter INPUT_TABLET _________________ Regards,

@NeddySeagoon,
Thanks for the explanation.
So I use the "/" search in the menuconfig and it showed me the paths, which I have done, but at the end it has "Depends on !UML && INPUT [=y]"
any idea what that means?
But I am still lost as to why it isn't recognizing it.
this is my out put of Code: | grep -iE "wacom|tablet" /usr/src/linux/.config |
Code: | CONFIG_INPUT_TABLET=y
CONFIG_TABLET_USB_ACECAD=m
CONFIG_TABLET_USB_AIPTEK=m
CONFIG_TABLET_USB_GTCO=m
# CONFIG_TABLET_USB_HANWANG is not set
CONFIG_TABLET_USB_KBTAB=m
CONFIG_TABLET_SERIAL_WACOM4=m
# CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN_WACOM_W8001 is not set
# CONFIG_TOUCHSCREEN_WACOM_I2C is not set
CONFIG_HID_WACOM=y
# CONFIG_FUJITSU_TABLET is not set |
still no dice. |

Tefrem34,
Maybe its fixed but you just don't know it.
What does show?
In particular, the date and time. Thats the date and time the running kernel was built.
Does it tie in with your memory of your most recent kernel build?
If not, you are not running the kernel you thing you are.
Code: | CONFIG_TABLET_SERIAL_WACOM4=m | builds your kernel driver an a module.
Does lsmod show it loaded? _________________ Regards,

I think that this is the only one that I have been modifying. When I adjust the kernel I am using /usr/src/linux-4.0.5-gentoo. Is this my problem?
lsmod isn't showing the wacom loaded. |

You are running kernel which was built Thu Aug 27 08:48:38 PDT, is this the latest you built? |

Tefrem34,
Code: | Thu Aug 27 08:48:38 PDT | is 3 or 4 hours ago.
How does that compare with your last kernel build?
means that its the first build of this kernel.
genkernel does a make mrproper, that will reset the counter, so it may not be useful.
What did lsmod tell? _________________ Regards,

that date was when I did the genkernel to get my keyboard and mouse working again. So not the resent one.

oh, I didn't know. It was from another post on an older article. That is why it didn't work.
Should I add "wacom" to /etc/conf.d/modules ?
like this: modules="nvidia wacom"
? |

So have you installed and booted that new kernel yet? You know, after compiling drivers :]
Also, do your USB ports work? Does `lsusb` show your device? |

@NeddySeagoon,
I ran but my tablet still isn't working.
@szatox,
To tell you the truth, I am not really sure now which kernel I am booting from. Instead of using the ~/kernel-4.0.5/ to edit the kernel. I just used the "/usr/src/linux" and made sure the the "<*> wacom" was selected.

it is showing that it is attached.
Should I make a config file for the wacom so that it reads the BUS #?
Which I have never had to do before. For me, the wacom always just worked. So this is really frustrating. |

The only config I have done for my wacom so far is in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d. It's purpose it to change default behaviour for my convenience.
Quote: | I am not really sure now which kernel I am booting from |
Let's find out:
zcat /proc/config.gz | grep -v "^#" | grep -i _hid
~~/snip/~~
CONFIG_HID_WACOM=m
CONFIG_HID_SENSOR_HUB=m

I messed up the kernel again trying to get the wacom to work, and had to use the genkernel again to get my desktop and usb devices back again, so some of the stuff I had before have been changed. So I am going to make some more adjustments again and see what I can do. This is really frustrating.
Is there a command to see what drivers are for hardware so I can reference to what I need to build the kernel with. I know there was one, because when I was trying to build the kernel for my sound card in my previous build, I used it to find the right one for my card. But I can not remember what it was or where I found the command. Does anyone know?
Thanks. |

Well after not making my usb devices no longer load again, I used the "genkernel all" and made the 2 wacom options as <M> and now it works!!
What a pain.
Now I just have to figure out what option that I was changing to make me loose my usb devices on boot. Then I can clean up the Kernel options that I don't need to have selected.
Now to figure out how to get my GTK applications in my KDE to work properly.
Thanks for all the help every one. I really appreciate it.  |

Well I guess I spoke to soon.
The tablet is being sort of recognized.
Under my system settings, under Graphic Tablet, Select Tablet, it is saying "unkown Waltop device 0x27 [0027]"
The problem is when I use the pen to select something, like picking a new brush in mypaint, it will not do it, I have to use my mouse to select anything. The touch feature works, but with the same problem, I can not tap to select; like left clicking with the mouse.
Code: | grep -i wacom /var/log/messages |
Code: | Aug 26 23:08:52 chesse kernel: usb 3-6: Manufacturer: Wacom Co.,Ltd.
Aug 27 09:40:41 chesse sudo[8198]: rbear : TTY=pts/2 ; PWD=/home/rbear ; USER=root ; COMMAND=/usr/bin/emerge -av x11-drivers/xf86-input-wacom

Wacom Intuos5 touch M Pen eraser id: 17 type: ERASER
Wacom Intuos5 touch M Pen cursor id: 18 type: CURSOR |
I also just noticed that it doesn't have the options to map the key shortcut buttons too. I remember it was there on my last build. There are 8 buttons and a touch wheel.
It is showing that is is detecting the right device, but why is system settings not detecting it properly? Do I need to reinstall the drivers again? |

Well I made another discovery, it only works in mypaint. I tried to use krita, and nothing. The cursor moves around but that is it. |

hey szatox, thanks for the reply
Quote: | Have you enabled your tablet in whatever graphic software you're using? |
Yes I have, I even configured the stylus pressure in Krita and MyPaint, besides in System Settings / Graphic Tablet.
I use MyPaint, Krita, and Inkscape as my drawing/art programs.

My last install, on my amd computer, I didn't have to do any of this. When I installed the KDE wacom tablet suite for my system settings it read my tablet just fine. But for some reason I am having all kinds of issues with this x99 platform.
I looked into the "/var/log/Xorg.0.log" and found that the wacom device is being read. However, the Code: | [ 22.430] (**) Option "Device" "/dev/input/event12"
[ 22.490] (EE) Wacom Intuos5 touch M Finger: Invalid type 'stylus' for this device.
[ 22.490] (EE) Wacom Intuos5 touch M Finger: Invalid type 'eraser' for this device.
[ 22.490] (EE) Wacom Intuos5 touch M Finger: Invalid type 'cursor' for this device.
[ 22.490] (II) Wacom Intuos5 touch M Finger: type not specified, assuming 'touch'.
[ 22.490] (II) Wacom Intuos5 touch M Finger: other types will be automatically added.
[ 22.490] (--) Wacom Intuos5 touch M Finger touch: maxX=4096 maxY=4096 maxZ=0 resX=18000 resY=29000
[ 22.490] (II) Wacom Intuos5 touch M Finger touch: hotplugging dependent devices.
[ 22.490] (EE) Wacom Intuos5 touch M Finger touch: Invalid type 'stylus' for this device.
[ 22.490] (EE) Wacom Intuos5 touch M Finger touch: Invalid type 'eraser' for this device.
[ 22.490] (EE) Wacom Intuos5 touch M Finger touch: Invalid type 'cursor' for this device.
[ 22.490] (EE) Wacom Intuos5 touch M Finger touch: Invalid type 'pad' for this device.
[ 22.490] (II) Wacom Intuos5 touch M Finger touch: hotplugging completed.
[ 22.550] (**) Option "config_info" "udev:/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb3/3-6/3-6:1.1/0003:056A:0027.0003/input/input12/event12"
[ 22.550] (II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Wacom Intuos5 touch M Finger touch" (type: TOUCH, id 15) | show that part of the device is not being registered. So I have no idea why the driver isn't registering the whole device, everything else except the pad input is working, and that is the most important part.
All I can think is that the driver is not working correctly for the x99 system.
As pertaining to the second article, I do not have synaptics installed. I just have a desktop, not a laptop.
Should I install it to see if it needs the touch pad driver for the pen to tablet input? Do you think that might fix my issue? I don't remember having it installed on my previous build.
