Well, I haven't yet figured out how to get an appropriate OLPC kernel build set-up but from my investigation to date it looks like the gtk.gdk class interface already has the "smarts" to talk to tablets. By default, Wacom USB tablets start out in a generic HID mode. The application would need to recognize the tablet, then enable the full tablet driver and configuration. http://linuxwacom.sourceforge.net/index.php/howto/theory From my reading of the gtk.gdk page it looks like those should map directly to the tablet access info on the Wacom HOWTO site. http://linuxwacom.sourceforge.net/index.php/appdev There is even a command line utility to config the tablet that could probably be integrated into the Sugar shell process or Sugarized into an activity of sorts: http://linuxwacom.sourceforge.net/index.php/howto/xsetwacom Regards, Chris _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
