I can't really think of any flaws with how it's going so far, I'll give you more feedback once I've had time to do a full test on it and had other people at work try it out.
Thanks Heaps

I.. Ehm... One of the ideas I had kept buggering me so I had to do something
about it... :)
The result was actually not that far from the original module, but this time
the X-driver won't be able to see that there's something between the HW. If
you use wacdump on the device you won't see a difference from eventX either.
You still need to patch the X-driver as the latest version doesn't like
changes in the width and height of the tablet. And I think you'd like to have
the driver reopen the device once when it gets a read-error (this is needed
when connecting a different tablet). Reconnecting the same tablet model is
seamless.
Only one tablet can be used at a time with the driver, I know a way to support
more than one if someone's interested. Just tell me... But it keeps all
connected tablets in an internal list and when you unplug the first tablet,
the next one should be opened automatically.
This kernel module is exclusively targeted at tablets compatible with
wacom_drv, so it will look at the tablet name and skip any that is not known.
The list is taken from the latest wacom kernel module (0.7.4-3) so it should
be fairly up-to-date at the moment with wacom tablets. Shout if there's any
other make/models that works with wacom_drv and you want included, please.
Most of what I had to do for the old module was reused in one way or another
so it was not a complete waste.. The patch from the latest version is used
as-is in fact ;)
The new kernel module (wacomproxy) is available as usual at:
http://195.38.3.2/linuxprojs/
Well, they say you should always throw away the first attempt ;) 1/3 less
code, cleaner event-loop (=less CPU used), better integration with
wacom_drv... I think this worked out for the best...
Hope you all like this attempt as much as my previous.
