Hi guys, I've installed and configured Slackware 8.0 on my workstation, and I've spent the past couple of evenings ironing out the little "issues". The NVidia-supplied X server is very nice with the OpenGL screensavers :)
The only thing left to sort out now is the Wacom tablet. I've read howto's, mini-howto's, micro-howto's and all sorts of web documentation. Going by the kernel messages and the X startup log, everything should be working with my current configuration. But it stubbornly refuses to actually do anything in X. It runs just fine with gpm so I know the kernel's talking to it, and X is talking to the kernel as it gives the device ID and horiz/vert resolution figures: (==) Wacom Kernel Input device name: "Wacom Intuos 4x5" (==) Wacom tablet maximum X=12700 maximum Y=10360 X resolution=0 Y resolution=0 suppress=0 [then a few more lines about the stylus/eraser/mouse tools I've configured in /etc/X11/XF86Config] Has anyone ever actually got one of these things working? Note its a USB interface, XFree86 4.1.0, Kernel 2.4.5. Cheers, - Dave http://www.digistar.com/~dmann/ (out of date)
