[Bug 807620] Re: Fixes tablets not working after suspend

 

** Description changed:

  I have an HP 2710p Tablet PC running Xubuntu 11.04, which features a
  wacom tablet. The stylus always works on first boot, but as soon as I
  sleep and then resume the system, the stylus stops working. It's still
  listed in "xinput list", but it just wouldn't work.
  
  It seems the problem lies in the kernel module, so I'm not sure that
  this is the right way to do this, but unloading the wacom module before
  sleep and then adding it back after resume seems to make everything work
  correctly.
  
  Question: why isn't this included in Ubuntu by default? I've had this
  problem since leaving Xubuntu 10.04 for 10.10, and now 11.04..
  
  I've attached a patch to apply to /var/lib/dpkg/info/xserver-xorg-input-
  wacom.preinst
  
  But if you want to just fix your own system, simply make a script in
  /etc/pm/sleep.d named "75_wacom", and put this into it:
  
  #!/bin/sh
  # load and unload wacom module for suspend and hibernate
  case "$1" in
  thaw|resume)
  modprobe wacom
  ;;
  suspend|hibernate)
  modprobe -r wacom
  ;;
  esac
  
+ Then run "sudo chmod +x /etc/pm/sleep.d/75_wacom" and hey presto! Your
+ tablet works again.
+ 
  Thanks, Ubuntu is cool.
