The Ubuntu bugtracker won't help much, it's Ubuntu-specific. Our bugtracker is here: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=69596 Either way, we're quite short on manpower and there is still no-one working on it. If you have a device, you're the most likely person to get this working again. By now the code is abstracted enough that adding another backend should be reasonably easy once you know the actual protocol the device speaks. > Do you see a future for this old serial tablet.
