Hi,
I finally found time to install Intrepid and can confirm this bug for
package version 0.8.1.4-0ubuntu3.
Fortunately, patch for linuxwacom 0.8.1-6 that is mentioned in my
previous comment (I'm attaching it here) works for me. (I uninstalled
xserver-xorg-input-wacom&wacom-tools and built patched linuxwacom
0.8.1-6 from source).
(In order to compile it, I needed to link files from
/usr/include/pixman-1 directly into /usr/include.)
To set up the driver I added following into my xorg.conf
Section "InputDevice"
Driver "wacom"
Identifier "touch"
Option "Device" "/dev/ttyS0"
Option "Type" "touch"
Option "Mode" "absolute"
Option "debuglevel" "2"
Option "ForceDevice" "ISDV4"
Option "BaudRate" "38400"
Option "Touch" "on"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Driver "wacom"
Identifier "stylus"
Option "Device" "/dev/ttyS0"
Option "Mode" "absolute"
Option "Type" "stylus"
Option "debuglevel" "8"
Option "ForceDevice" "ISDV4"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Driver "wacom"
Identifier "eraser"
Option "Device" "/dev/ttyS0"
Option "Type" "eraser"
Option "Mode" "absolute"
Option "debuglevel" "8"
Option "ForceDevice" "ISDV4"
EndSection
Section "Serverlayout"
Identifier "Default layout"
Screen "Default Screen"
Inputdevice "touch" "SendCoreEvents"
Inputdevice "stylus" "SendCoreEvents"
Inputdevice "eraser" "SendCoreEvents"
EndSection
I also added
/bin/setserial /dev/ttyS0 port 0x338 autoconfig
before line "exit 0 " in /etc/rc.local
Hope this helps.
Note: you don't need to have "cursor" lines in xorg.conf. Just "stylus",
"eraser" and "touch" works fine.
Note 2: From what I have read on linuxwacom-devel mailing list archives
on sourceforge I think this (attached) patch was sent to linuxwacom
project admin by its author already and should be included in next
linuxwacom release (see linuxwacom-devel for details).
