Did the kernel developers change the way this tablet is recognized in this kernel? Sometimes if I restat X it will find the tablet but it isn't on /dev/input/event2 like it is in my xorg.conf. The wacom module is working because if I rmmod and modprobe it I get the same thing as in /*/*/messages like below. There is something in the release notes about automatic configuration of devices and not needing an xorg for them at all? What's up with that. Do I need another config file somewhere?
I'm just a dumb artist so don't ask me to recompile anything,( besides I use yum so that would break that too.) --b bill jehle wrote: > kernel-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6 > linuxwacom-0.7.4_1-2.1 > > (This is, below my previous post, to solve it I dropped back to the > previous kernel.) > *** > This may be a problem with the kernel; my tablet won't start.
