Hi, I spent quite a while trying to find out how to get the tablet stuff working on a Compaq TC1000. Amongst other stuff I came about the linuxwacom site and found the Documentation about Tablet PCs promising.
I have the impression that I am stuck at initializing the serial device (connecting the tablet hardware to it). As mentioned in the documentation, chapter 7, this has to be initialized on some Compaq Tablet PCs. There is a small c application meant to do this, but it is written for a compaq TC1100, a slightly newer model. It is also mentioned that this application has not been tested with the TC1000. I would like to do that, but I have no idea about kernel hacking and hardware stuff. So maybe someone can give me a helping hand? Thanks for any reply, I'll be happy to provide additional info ! arkascha This is the setup so far: Distribution: opensuse-10.2 I have the tc1000ts.c file compiled with -O2 and call it from /etc/init.d/boot.local: # some comments touch /var/lock/subsys/local /usr/sbin/tc1000ts /bin/setserial /dev/ttyS2 autoconfig boot.local IS processed, I can generate errors or logging from it. Nevertheless a setserial call afterwards still gives: # setserial /dev/ttyS2 /dev/ttyS2, UART: unknown, Port: 0x03e8, IRQ: 4 Consequently wacdump does not work: # wacdump /dev/ttyS2 WacomOpenTablet: Invallid argument I also tried to use setserial by hand (without autofconfig), but could not produce any result.
