And I didn't need it before, when it was still working, so I commented it out again. Next I better describe my output in wacdump: Using: wacdump -f tpc /dev/wacom The first relevant lines in wacdump are e.g. MODEL=Tablet PC Screen ROM=0.0-0 CLS=Serial VNDR=Wacom DEV=TabletPC Sub=tpc #Then there is shown a set of 9 bytes(in hexadecimal format) on the top, like: 80 0C 6E 10 6B 00 68 00 00 of which the first 7 change when there is some action with the pen (i think this is the same if I hexdump /dev/wacom). If the pen is out of Range, the first Byte is: 80 If the pen is in Range, the first Byte is: A0 If I touch the screen with the tip it is: A1 If I press the second button of the pen it is: A2 If I press the second button of the pen and touch the screen with the tip it is: A3 If the eraser is in range it is: A4 If I touch the screen with the eraser tip it is: A5 Now if I touch my three soft buttons: Button 1 - The first two bytes are: C1 01 (all other 00) Button 2 - The first two bytes are: C1 02 (all other 00) Button 3 - The first two bytes are: C1 04 (all other 00) This buttons defintively worked under Kubuntu Edgy (I think it used wacom-tools-0.7.2, generating X events as button 9, 10, 12 -- tried this now out too, but no improvement ) and maybe even in Dapper; in older versions of Kubuntu it didn't and I didn't bother. But now, since I've become used to these buttons, I really miss them. Hope this information is sufficient.
