Re: An example of how things should *not* be done

Ideally, couldn't the install script for xserver-input-wacom add the necessary stuff to xorg.conf itself? I imagine that would lead to really ugly xorg configuration files, though, as we see with the old Screens & Graphics tool. I guess what we need is a magical, open-ended and centralized tool fo

I finally got a couple of answers explaining the situation. Then I tried to provide a patch to dexconf to include wacom support if /dev/input/wacom is present.

It appears the packages in hardy are broken. When you click the settings icon..it does nothing. Is this just not implimented? Or was something missed when packaging? On Tue, Apr 22, 2008 at 11:53 AM, Alessandro Decina <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Tue, Apr 22, 2008 at 5:33 PM, Markus Hitter <[EM

Elisa is already in hardy. Just apt-get it or use synaptic. It looks really cool...basically a gtk/gstreamer rip off of apple's stuff. But it's nice and surprisingly smooth (for the 2 minutes I played with it) . On Tue, Apr 22, 2008 at 10:33 AM, Markus Hitter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Am 22.
