Public bug reported: Binary package hint: wacom-tools
I have an AceCad tablet which used to work in Ubuntu 7.10 perfectly on wacom drivers (it's compatible with wacom). I tested my tablet on Jaunty Alpha LiveCD. It doesn't look good. 1. Tablet is not autodetected. I can't even move the cursor using the tablet. 2. After configuring it as in Ubuntu 7.10 (where it worked): a) adding /dev/tablet-event on "USB Graphics Tablet" input device using this guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/TabletSetupWizardpenDapper b) and adding lines to xorg.conf for my tablet: # commented out by update-manager, HAL is now used Section "InputDevice" Driver "wacom" Identifier "stylus" Option "Device" "/dev/tablet-event" Option "Type" "stylus" Option "ForceDevice" "ISDV4"# Tablet PC ONLY Option "USB" "on" Option "Mode" "Absolute" Option "Threshold" "1" #Option "Model" "Flair" EndSection # commented out by update-manager, HAL is now used Section "InputDevice" Driver "wacom" Identifier "cursor" Option "Device" "/dev/tablet-event" Option "Type" "cursor" Option "ForceDevice" "ISDV4"# Tablet PC ONLY Option "USB" "on" Option "Mode" "Absolute" Option "Threshold" "1" #Option "Model" "Flair" EndSection # commented out by update-manager, HAL is now used Section "InputDevice" Driver "wacom" Identifier "eraser" Option "Device" "/dev/tablet-event" Option "Type" "eraser" Option "!ForceDevice" "ISDV4"# Tablet PC ONLY Option "USB" "on" Option "Mode" "Absolute" Option "Threshold" "1" #Option "Model" "Flair" EndSection Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Default Layout" screen 0 "Default Screen" 0 0 # commented out by update-manager, HAL is now used # Inputdevice "Generic Keyboard" # commented out by update-manager, HAL is now used # Inputdevice "Configured Mouse" # commented out by update-manager, HAL is now used Inputdevice "stylus" "SendCoreEvents" # commented out by update-manager, HAL is now used Inputdevice "cursor" "SendCoreEvents" # commented out by update-manager, HAL is now used Inputdevice "eraser" "SendCoreEvents" EndSection c) and restarting xorg the tablet works like that: - I can move the cursor but its moves are eradic (it jumps from place to place) - very similar effect as I have right know on Intrepid when I use it - after using the tablet my left mouse button stops functioning - I can't click using the tablet, so I can't check if the pressure is working This bug is also in Intrepid, reported here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/intrepid-backports/+bug/309531/ I'll test it on newer wacom-tools drivers from debian unstable soon and update this report. ** Affects: wacom-tools (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: tablet wacom -- Tablet not working properly in Jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/318669 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
