Wacom Graphire USB support

2006-11-04 Thread Matt Carr
I've been looking at switching to FreeBSD for a few weeks now.  The  
only thing holding me back now is that I cannot find out if USB Wacom  
grahics tablets are supported.  I don't use a regular mouse in order  
to reduce wrist strain.  So I thought I ask here if they are supported  
or if anyone has found a way to get them to work?  Or am I stuck with  
Mandriva for a while longer?


My tablet is a USB 6x8 Wacom Graphire 3 (model#CTE630 Vendor Id: 056a  
Product Id: 0014), if that hepls.

When I plug in my Intuos, FreeBSD detects it as a uhid device.  As long 
as you configure X to use it, it should work fine.  I'm not sure if the 
pressure sensitivity will work though. I do not recall how to set it up 
in Xorg, seeing as how I have no use for it currently, so I cannot help 
you there.  The lack of a decent paint program in FreeBSD has negated my 
need for tablet support.
