[Bug 568064] Re: Wacom new bamboo models are not recognized in Lucid

 

Strikton:
I think that the procedure you put in the link is incorrect for Lucid, the procedure that worked for me was:

Download the latest package from linuxwacom.sourceforge.net, I used both
the 0.8.6 and the development one and both worked, the most notable
difference between is that the xsetwacom in the development version
already has the option   xsetwacom list xsetwacom list mod


[CODE]

cd linuxwacom-0.8.6

./configure --enable-wacom

cd src/2.6.30/ # Don't Care about the kernel version in Ubuntu which is
2.6.32

make

sudo cp wacom.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/input/tablet/

sudo rmmod wacom # It is required because you already installed the
module

sudo modprobe wacom

[/CODE]

After that you should register the wacom module in /etc/modules

If you have a Pen & Touch tablet may be you want avoid the finger
cursor, it is uncomfortable when you use the pen. Create an execultable
called .xinitrc in your home directory with the lines

[CODE]
xsetwacom set "Wacom BambooFun 2FG 4x5 Finger" touch off

# run the primary system script
. /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc
[/CODE]
