Why not just upgrade to Fedora core ? It includes the newest linuxwacom driver 0.7.2 already and refering to some user experience it works great.

Thanks,

I've actually tried that already, but it didn't make a difference and in the Xorg.log file I got the following messages:
(EE) pad: No type or invalid type specified.
Must be one of stylus, cursor or eraser
(EE) PreInit returned NULL for "pad"

I'm going to try to build the latest linuxwacom-package now and see if that helps. Need to recompile the kernel though, which is a bit of a hassle.

I'm missing the "pad" device in your config. Probably that's the problem. If I remember correctly without installing expresskeys for configuring the keys and strips they shoudl be disabled.

Here are the relevant lines from my xorg.conf:

Section "ServerLayout"
   InputDevice    "pad"
EndSection

#Note that there is NO "SendCoreEvent" here!

Section "InputDevice"
   Identifier    "pad"
   Driver        "wacom"
   Option        "Device"    "/dev/input/wacom"
   Option        "Type"        "pad"
   Option        "USB"        "on"
EndSection

#Of course you need to edit the "Device" line though I'm using an udev link to the right /event.

I'm using Ubuntu 5.10, linuxwacom 0.7.2 and an Intuos3 6x8/A5

Dirk

I should probably add that we don't really need to use the ExpressKeys and the Touch Strips, best would probably be to disable them somehow.

We've got quite a few Wacoms in the house and we've noticed a problem with a few of them (or probably rather the configuration on the machine). It's on some of the Intuos3-tables that we're having problems. When you press the ExpressKeys or touch the Touch Strip (there's one of each on each top corner of the tablet), the cursor just pops up to the top left corner and the wacom will stop working until you've restarted X. It doesn't seem to happen on all machines, but I've tried to configure them in the same way.

The machines are running Fedora Core 3 and the kernel-version is 2.6.12-1.1381_FC3smp. The installed rpm-package of linuxwacom is linuxwacom-0.6.4-6. Apart from that I haven't installed or compiled any linuxwacom packages.

I've got this in the Serverlayout section
       InputDevice    "Mouse1" "CorePointer"
       InputDevice    "pen1"   "SendCoreEvents"
       InputDevice    "eraser1" "SendCoreEvents"
       InputDevice    "cursor1" "SendCoreEvents"

And I've got Load "wacom" in the module-section.

This is also in the xorg.conf

Section "InputDevice"
       Identifier      "Mouse1"
       Driver           "mouse"
       Option         "Device"                "/dev/input/mouse0"
       Option         "Protocol"              "ImPS/2"
       Option         "Emulate3Buttons"       "no"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
       Identifier      "pen1"
       Driver          "wacom"
       Option          "Type"  "stylus"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/event2" # USB with USB mouse Option "USB" "on" # USB only
      Option           "Mode"   "Absolute"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
       Identifier      "eraser1"
       Driver          "wacom"
       Option          "Type" "eraser"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/event2" # USB with USB mouse Option "USB" "on" # USB only
      Option           "Mode"   "Absolute"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
       Identifier      "cursor1"
       Driver          "wacom"
       Option          "Type" "cursor"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/event2" # USB with USB mouse Option "USB" "on" # USB only
      Option           "Mode"   "Absolute"
EndSection

Does anyone have any suggestions on what might be causing this?

Best Regards
Mattias
