Hi, I had sent following mail from my primary mail address but was returned undeliverable. Hence, sending again through another email Id.
Hi, Sorry for rather long mail. I am including details of all that I have attempted so far. And though I have registered for linuxwacom-discuss list, I am unable to access the archives due to 500, internal server error. I am using Toshiba Satellite R-10 Tablet PC. The tablet, as per windows XP system information is wacom serial tablet, connected to serial port (com1, - though it doesn't anywhere specifically say so). The I/O range reported is 0338-033f and IRQ is 04. I have installed SuSE Linux 10.2. I have been trying to configure the tablet under Linux, without much success. Following is what I have done: ran xxd /dev/ttys0. The script runs, i. e., it doesn't exit with any code unless I end it with ctrl+C. But, otherwise there is no output when I move the stylus across the screen. xxd /dev/ttys1 (2 and 3) result into immediate exit, without any return code. xxd /dev/ttys4 (5, 6, ...) result into exit with error code xxd: /dev/ttys4: No such device or address. setserial /dev/ttys0 (or setserial -g /dev/ttys0) results in dev/ttys0: Input/output error. The boot messages include following with regard to "serial": <notice>setserial start Configuring serial ports... /dev/ttyS0 at 0x0338 (irq = 4) is a 16550A Configured serial ports done<notice>'setserial start' exits with status 0 I downloaded and configured the latest driver (linuxwacom-0.7.6-4). There were no warnings while configuring. I installed the same (make and make install). There were some messages, though no warnings. However, I haven't recorded the output of this process. Running wacdump /dev/ttys0 results in: 18:06:06.703 ERROR: Failed to open /dev/ttys0: input/output error WacomOpenTablet: input/output error. I am not a computer expert, I don't work in IT field - I am simple user of computers and can reasonably follow directions. Any help on enabling Tablet on this laptop (Toshiba Satellite R-10, Tablet PC) is welcome. As a last resort, If you would like me to change the distribution to something like Mepis, Mandriva, etc., I am open for that!
