[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 770082] Re: missing 10-wacom.conf
Hi, I just wanted to say this just happened to me as well (and thanks Favux as your posts on UbuntuForums allowed me to fix it). My tablet worked on the first day after adding the PPA. xserver was only updated (or downloaded at all?) at the next boot and everything had been working as intended. Then today (first reboot after the update), I lost the ability to use the stylus after tapping the pad until I moved it out of range and brought it back. Both buttons were also completely inactive. 10-wacom.conf was indeed missing so I created one with the suggested code and now it works again. Looking at my sources, it seems I have Doctor Mo's PPA as well. Got the link from Ubuntu's French doc at http://doc.ubuntu- fr.org/wacom_bamboo_pen (2nd method). But since it worked perfectly until xserver got added, I'd be tempted to place the fault on the latter. I'm using Ubuntu 10.04 and a Bamboo Pen. Let me know if I can help and thanks a million for your work. Hopefully this will help my wrist pain. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xf86-input-wacom in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/770082 Title: missing 10-wacom.conf To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xf86-input-wacom/+bug/770082/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 770082] Re: missing 10-wacom.conf
It is true a number of users reported using DoctorMO's ( Martin Owens) PPA: https://launchpad.net/~doctormo/+archive/wacom-plus and then ending up with a non-functional tablet due to a missing 10-wacom.conf. I assumed that a update of the PPA shortly after the hypothetical problem update had incorporated the packaging error. I reasoned it couldn't be the PPA responsible for the missing configuration file because the majority of users reported only having installed vanilla Lucid plus official updates. I recall looking at the PPA at the time and not spotting a problem there either. And yes, it has been a long, long time since I installed the default Lucid xf86-input-wacom-0.10.5. It is just so early in xf86-input-wacom development. And as you know the 0.10.x tree was for code reorganization and not really intended for users. The 0.11.x tree was originally the series intended for widespread user use/testing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xf86-input-wacom in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/770082 Title: missing 10-wacom.conf To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xf86-input-wacom/+bug/770082/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 770082] Re: missing 10-wacom.conf
I don't know what update you are talking about, but the lucid system I can access still have the file in place. And lucid was the only release that used that path, newer releases ship the snippets in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d. ** Changed in: xf86-input-wacom (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xf86-input-wacom in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/770082 Title: missing 10-wacom.conf To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xf86-input-wacom/+bug/770082/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 770082] Re: missing 10-wacom.conf
There was a rash of missing 10-wacom.conf's in I guess March 2011? Our speculation at the time was that it was due to an update since several Wacom users reported their tablet stopped working after some sort of xserver update. We never pinned down a culprit update. I waited a few weeks or better before posting this bug report to ensure the issue was persisting. But okey doke. I'll just continue showing users whose Wacom tablets aren't working due to a lack of a 10-wacom.conf, for whatever mysterious reason, how to install it manually. As I have been doing the last eight months. After all there's less than 18 months to go. I should have kept a running total. 40-50 by now? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xf86-input-wacom in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/770082 Title: missing 10-wacom.conf To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xf86-input-wacom/+bug/770082/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 770082] Re: missing 10-wacom.conf
apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected ** Description changed: A fairly recent Lucid update (~3 weeks ago?) inadvertently removed the 10-wacom.conf at /usr/lib/X11/xorg.conf.d on at least some systems. This has the effect of breaking a Wacom tablet or tablet PC unless an xorg.conf is being used.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 770082] Re: missing 10-wacom.conf
Hi Fabio, I've always assumed this was a packaging bug. The newer upstream xf86 -input-wacom versions will try to write a 50-wacom.conf to /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d. It's not aware of the Debian/Ubuntu custom location /usr/lib/X11/xorg.conf.d for kernel 2.6.32's hybrid X server 1.7. Maybe an extra rule to direct the 10-wacom.conf to the correct place was inadvertently dropped from the xserver-xorg-input-wacom package? Or if the .conf is packaged with other .conf's in another package it was inadvertently left out? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xf86-input-wacom in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/770082 Title: missing 10-wacom.conf To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xf86-input-wacom/+bug/770082/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
