Support for old serial tablets was removed from the xf86-input-wacom driver a while ago because none of the developers has access to such a device, so it was likely going to break anyway. There has been some effort by people who own such a device to re-add support to the wacom driver, but I don't know what the status of this is. -- Serial Tablet PCs not supported in lucid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/522318 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
