Hi,

did anyone get this to work in Gentoo? I'm having some problems to get it to work. I've tried both the in kernel support module and the linuxwacom-module package in gentoo and none of them works for me... When I connect it, the tablet seems to get recognized by the kernel
Code:

dell xorg.conf.d # dmesg  | tail -n 10

and also by xorg (though in the end, it says "No input driver/identifier specified (ignoring)", which is probably a bad thing :D )

[   504.067] (II) config/udev: Adding input device WALTOP International Corp. Slim Tablet (/dev/input/mouse2)
[   504.067] (II) No input driver/identifier specified (ignoring)

but if I cat /dev/input/event12, which seems to be the device for it, there is no output when I use the pen on it.

The corresponding xorg.conf configuration for it is:
Code:

dell xorg.conf.d # cat 90-wacom.conf
Section "InputClass"
        Identifier "Wacom class"
        MatchProduct "Wacom|WALTOP|WACOM"
        MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
        #Driver "evdev"
        Driver "wacom"
EndSection


Another strange issue is that the wacom module from the kernel doesn't get automatically loaded when I plug in the tablet (though all the above applies the same if I load it manually).

Any idea? Am I missing something?

Greetings!!

Have you tried matching on /dev/input/mouse*, since that is apparently how xorg saw it?

That's a good point...it's working :D

I just thought /dev/input/even* was fine since it also says
Code:

Option "Device" "/dev/input/event12"

:oops:

So, thank you very much!!! adding solved to the subject...

PS: I'm wondering if it's a bad thing that it gets detected as a mouse.... :? that will probably be next topic I'll start :)
