You can define a udev rule so that a link to the right event is set for every boot.

Just make a file called "65-wacom.rules", put the following lines in there and save it to /etc/udev/rules.d

# udev rule for wacom tablets.

KERNEL=="event[0-9]*", SYSFS{idVendor}=="056a", SYMLINK+="input/wacom"


At least this rule works for me (Ubuntu 6.10). There might be a better though.

Hi!

Is there a possibility to tie the wacom-inuput to a certain event#?
After every boot I have the wacom-input on a different event# - which
makes it impossible to use the input of tablet (which otherwise works
perfect according to the wacdump utility, but it does not show up in any
programme, of course and it is impossible to test it with xidump). I
looked as well for a wacom entry in /dev and /dev/input because somebody
reported that this device would exist in ubuntu - but not on my system.

My system:
Ubuntu 6.10, kernel 2.6.17-10-386, linuxwacom-0.7.6-4, Graphire4 XL

Thanks for any help.
Cheers,

Henning
