Hi, I've just uploaded a new version of my kernel module that will enable hotplugging a Wacom tablet without any special tricks attached (meaning: no VT-switching). It also seems to fix a problem with kernel oops:es when unplugging the tablet. Not everybody seems have this behaviour, but I have not had one single oops since I started using it and I used to get it every time..
It does not alter the properties of the device, so if you have a working configuration today you should not notice any difference in operation. The latest changes are mostly cleanup of the code to conform to linux kernel source standards, but I did eliminate a memory leak as well (50-70 bytes every time a tablet was unplugged). As always, available at: http://195.38.3.2/linuxprojs/ Feedback on the idea/implementation/performance most appreciated. I'm getting to a point where I feel I'm almost ready to send patch updates to different places, but first a few questions you you all: The current implementation only handles one tablet at a time. Would it be benificial to have support for several proxy devices each serving a different physical tablet? Might be messy to configure X in this case as there's no guarantee that the tablets end up on the same proxy-dev every time. Who is the suitable receiver for this driver? The linuxwacom-project or is it recommended to go directly to the kernel-maintainers?
