Arch Linux

linuxwacom seems to be obsolete now (no dev activity for weeks), please try "xf86-input-wacom" instead: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=28999

cp: cannot stat `/lib/modules/2.6.32-ARCH/build/drivers/hid/hid-ids.h': No such file or directory

If you are a Bamboo user, use this package other instead (works great!)

Version 8.4 is not compatible with current stable kernel version. Beta version 8.5 seems to be required to support recent kernel.

However, I did not manage to build version 8.5...

0.8.4 doesn't compile against 2.6.32 Kernel

I've been plagued by this bug:

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2030106&group_id=69596&atid=525124

Looks like it was solved once, long ago, and since returned. pingc wonders if this has been fixed as of 8.5.7, which is presently a very recent (unstable) version.

Has anyone else experienced this bug? What's the update schedule looking like for this package? Getting recent versions to build on this arch machine looks like quite a bit of trouble.

This bug shows up consistently when I do software-suspend; it pretty much makes suspend unusable.

With xorg-server-1.7.3.1 this works for me:

}

okay, tried to roll back to: xorg-server-1.7.1.901-2-i686.pkg.tar.gz and to xorg-server-1.7.1.902-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz on my x41t. With that xorg-version linuxwacom was already running some day. Guess what - still segfautls on startx x when linuxwacom installed. I have the feeling, that it's not (only) the xorg-server issue. Maybe it's a matter of some new kernel, kms or some lib like glibc which was updated?
Curious..

For me It doesn't work with xorg-server-1.7.3.1. Error log says no wacom modul found and xserver dosen't start. I have a Thinkpad tablet with wacom inside.

Did someone tried with the new xorg-server-1.7.3-1?

Regards,

Kab

I'm using the latest ATI drivers from git, run kernel 2.6.32 from [testing] and have xserver 1.7.2-2 installed. When the wacom module is loaded (I'm using Wacom Bamboo Fun CTE-650), everything works except for the stylus. When I exit the xserver the whole system freezes, X probably doesn't even quit (I can still see the background picture). Unloading the wacom module before starting X expectedly causes the tablet to stop working, but X can be exited normally.

A hint… I've got stock kernel module wacom and xorg drivers compiled from this package. Starting x works. Tablet seems to function just fine while in x session. Everything collapses (badly) when I'm trying to exit x.

Not only intel… I've got the same issue with nvidia (vendor driver)

with xorg-server 1.7.2 it doesn't segfault but presents a black screen unable to change to any VT (could connect via ssh however).
Possible, that the combination of intel - kms - xorg - wacom is broken.
Two weeks without wacom. Doh! :)

For those of you with segfaults, i had the same problem when i loaded the wacom driver using xorg.conf. Running xorg without xorg.conf solved that problem for me.

Now i have another problem though. The cursor jumps to the border of the screen while using the pen. Drawing a circle looks like this: http://jefahrenbucht.de/wacom-jumping-circle.jpg

Anybody got an idea what could cause this? I'm using a Thinkpad X41 Tablet btw.

xerver segfaults while trying to load wacom module. without wacom it runs without problems.

Hi heftig, same problem with me (big crash, reboot to fix). A linuxwacom-fedora would be really nice... if you have time, I'd like to test that...

This horribly crashes X and wedges my Intel GPU for me (Thinkpad X61), requiring a reboot to unbreak. Using the Fedora patchset works for me.

Combined patch, to be applied to linuxwacom-0.8.2-2:
http://omploader.org/vMnQ5OA/linuxwacom-0.8.2.2-fedora.patch

If anyone is interested, I'd create a linuxwacom-fedora package.

@drschwalbenmann: done.

Error while configure:
No package 'xorg-server' found

please at it to the dependencies...

@AlienofDoom: the crash is unrelated to the package, and you probably can't file a bug to linuxwacom either (because of the patch), try to seek help on the forums.

Tried this today with yaourt. Install worked fine. Configured my Intuos 3 and can draw with Gimp. Great. Used xsetwacom to configure Intuos pad buttons. That in itself worked. However, when I then press any pad button I've configured X crashes. My system packages are completely up to date.

got rid of 'update-kernel-drivers.sh' (now you can upgrade from yaourt).

Please report any problems, I still haven't had a chance to test the installed package.

adapted Fedora/Gentoo patch to build against xorg-server>=1.7 (not sure if earlier versions will compile/work correctly, please test)

@Sachiel: this should elminate the building error.

I'm getting problems compiling the last version (I've been using previous versions before). Here you can find the logfile: http://sharetext.org/RTZ . I see too many errors to identify which one is the "critical" one to google about it :S. Or are all of them realated to a single "initial" error?

Oh right. Sorry about that.

@anteater: 0.8.5 belongs to the development branch, use linuxwacom-dev instead: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=25238

Version 0.8.5-1 has been released. The current version does not work with xorg 1.7, but the new one hopefully does.

@Maggie34: click the link labeled "Tarball" (above) > download & extract the tarball > cd to extracted directory > launch makepkg -i > sudo ./update-kernel-drivers.sh > done.

if you'd rather do it manually see: http://linuxwacom.sourceforge.net/index.php/howto/kernel

I'm sorry for my question, but HOW can I use supplied script (update-kernel-drivers.sh) or replace wacom kernel drivers??

Liebe Grüße Margarette

extended update-kernel-drivers.sh (also, now REALLY with any kernel version), no release change since it doesn't affect current users in anyway.

@Dr.Bang: good luck.

It's probably my fault, Google says nobody else has this problem.

I've only been using Arch for a week, so this must be the inevitable learning phase encountered at every distro switch.

Thanks again for your help.

@Dr.Bang: assuming you did everything right thus far, i'm guessing it could be related to X rather than the wacom drivers, usually there are a few suspects in this case, 1) graphics drivers, 2) X server itself and 3) compositing software.

Absolute failure. I removed linuxwacom, downgraded the kernel, re-installed linuxwacom (rebooting within each process), but the problem persists.

I also tried linuxwacom-dev again, but now this also suffers from the same problem.

I am just a lowly Python programmer, so my only option now is to flee back to Debian.

Thanks for your help, gwash.

Dr.Bang: remember that you need to re-probe the wacom module in order to use the new drivers (rebooting will do). either way tell me how it went.

Here's an example of what I'm talking about:

http://i.imagehost.org/0200/swirl.png

Using ArtRage.

I've tried with and without linuxwacom's kernel drivers; my next move will be to downgrade the Kernel and run your PKGBUILD instead of linuxwacom-dev.

@Dr.Bang: i noticed that linuxwacom-dev does this for you (which is really a bad idea), if you want to replace the kernel drivers run the supplied script file (update-kernel-drivers.sh) as root.

@Dr.Band: not really sure, did you replace the kernel drivers with linuxwacom's?

I've just upgraded from linuxwacom-dev and Kernel 2.6.30 to your version of linuxwacom and kernal 2.6.31. Everything builds fine and installs, but I've noticed that I can can no longer draw smooth lines in Photoshop or artrage (www.artrage.com).

Is it the new kernel? The new wacom driver? Or the hid-ids.h hack?

@Sara: i can't reproduce the error (even with latest packages from [core] and [extra]), so it does seem like a [testing]-related error, try to find support on the forum/IRC.

I'm now getting the following errors upon updating (didn't have a problem with the PKGBUILD I used yesterday, posted in your 11 October entry, but today I did download a buckload of updates from the testing repo...):

Error: unable to update linuxwacom

Seems to work fine for me. Thanks :)

fixed problem with kernel26-2.6.31, updated drivers script (now works with any kernel version)..

@Truewar: does the error persist with the current pkgbuild?

pacman -S inputproto kernel26 libxi ncurses pixman
yaourt -S linuxwacom

And during build I get error below. How can I fix it?

Fyi, my 'fix' (hack) grabs from a git repo, so the md5sum always needs to be fixed. What we need to figure out is why the source isn't included in the kernel or if it's in a package somewhere I can't seem to find, or something.

EDIT:

Fyi, the current sum at this moment is '284ee7a33afe6d5e853b8cf67ade2d03'

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-meta/+bug/446776

Also, it appears Ubuntu is having the same issue, oddly enough, even though the file's in their git. Perhaps not added to the kernel (or wherever else it's supposed to come from.. I think it's the kernel) sources upstream?

upgraded to latest, sorry for the delay.

if more people are interested in FrozenFox's fix, i can add it to the build script.

The workaround FrozenFox suggested works flawlessly with 2.6.31. Thanks.

Er, actually it seems I did get it to compile against the kernel in testing with a lousy hack job. It seems Arch's kernel source / headers don't come with hid-ids.h, and linuxwacom wanted it. This compiled for me successfully, however I won't be able to *test* it for a few days. If someone wants to do so before me, it would be great:

Add to source:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git-repos/ubuntu/linux-2.6/drivers/hid/hid-ids.h

Add to sums:
'9280b0c7acdbc8233049fe3a42bb1665'

Add below ./configure lines:
cp ${srcdir}/hid-ids.h ./src/2.6.31/hid-ids.h
sed -i 's|cp $(WCM_KERNEL_DIR)/drivers/hid/hid-ids.h .||g' ./src/2.6.31/Makefile

This apparently won't build against the kernel in Testing. You might want to use the same kernel dependencies as the linuxwacom-dev package.

fixed.

heya,

new release.

updated url (thanks FrozenFox)

URL appears to be dead. Manually doing makepkg using the most recent stable tarball on sourceforge ("0.8.4-1") rendered both the pkgbuild (source, cd path, maybe another thing or two) and the module update script (cp path) in need of tweaks for the "-1", but it worked.

Btw: this release, run with script provided and a full system update (using Testing repo -- but I think normal will work fine now too), finally makes wacom-utility 1.9 (udev/hal detection instead of xorg.conf config) work, and I've updated accordingly. \o/ Thanks!

@cistorhooi: sorry, clumsy fingers, fixed.

heya,

The md5sum seems to be broken, at least for me, there seem to be an extraneous "2222" in between the two md5sums, removing them seemed to fix things.

Cheers,
Victor

added --libexecdir configure switch, removed tk dependency, i'll keep the --enable-wacom option in case someone is building against a differnt kernel version (thanks Rad3k)

Hi. I had to change few things in PKGBUILD for this package to work fully:
- add configure switch "--libexecdir=/usr/lib/hal" (default is /usr/libexec , which is Arch-incompatible)
- remove configure switch "--enable-wacom" (usb drivers are now in kernel)
- remove 'tk' dependency, which is unneeded as we're not building wacomcpl

The first change is the most important, as it makes hotplugging work as it should - all devices (in my case - stylus, eraser, pad) are properly set up.

Cheers,
Radek

updated to v0.8.4, added install file, a script to replace kernel's drivers

NOTE: kernel 2.6.30's wacom drivers seem to work fine on their own, i don't recommend replacing them unless you have to.

i recommend using linuxwacom-dev from AUR for now, this project has a strange release-cycle..

Xorg-server 1.6 has now been moved into extra. This package won't compile now.

for the 2.6.28 kernel, watch out for a "wacom: probe of 7-2:1.0 failed with error -113" when loading the modules (this is read by running dmesg). This error is due to an unsuported kernel on installing the linuxwacom package. I've followed this tips and it's now fully functional (it was only working the touch function of my tablet)
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=517775
hope it helps

@benob: it says there that the patch is done against linuxwacom svn not stable, i can't add it to the current version, espcially that most people haven't switched to xorg-server 1.6 yet.. cheers!

The package does not compile against xorg-server 1.6 (from testing).
Please add that patch to the PKGBUILD for it to work: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2517856&group_id=69596&atid=525126

adopted and upgraded..

note:
i've changed the PKGBUILD so it would build USB wacom by default, please tell me if this causes a problem for anyone..

In order for me to my Wacom Bamboo to use the wacom driver instead of the synaptics driver, I added the following file to /etc/hal/fdi/policy/custom_wacom.fdi:

ps: через xorg.conf я умею настраивать нормальное перемещение курсора с помощью планшета, но речь именно о том, чтобы убрать из xorg.conf все настройки input-девайсов и возложить управление ими на HAL (как того требуют современные тенденции)..

2 Abadaar: already posted valid variant by me (for version 0.8.2-2)
2 Ilya: может, стОит добавить файл с правилами в /etc/hal/fdi/policy/ (или в /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy, как это делает xf86-input-synaptics)?.. сейчас, к примеру, у меня планшет работает навроде тачпада - меняет относительные координаты курсора, а не абсолютные.. но я, увы, не знаю, как исправление этих параметров выразить в виде fdi-файла :)..

Hello!

Since the newest version of linuxwacom (0.8.2-2) uses a '-' in the version number, I had to make an ugly hack to make it work (since '-' is not allowed in the pkgver).
Don't base any later PKGBUILD on this version.

I have built and tested this on x86_64.

Enjoy!

namcap complains about the package creating manual pages in /usr/man ... this can be fixed by adding

--mandir=/usr/share/man

as an argument to the ./configure invokation

PKGBUILD updated according two previous messages.
Please, test it (so i can't test it right now). Sorry for delay.

I had to add

--x-includes=/usr/include/pixman-1/

to the configure line, otherwise it couldn't find pixman.h half-way through the build.

(It doesn't look to me like this is the best way to add this include dir, but it did allow it to build.)

This package seriously needs to be officially updated. There's an issue with my Graphire 4 not producing smooth lines in GIMP when I draw quickly, for instance. My research has led me to think it's either linuxwacom or Xorg itself.

0.8.2 is out.

Please update this package as newer version solve some very annoying stability problems on X41 and X60 tablet, e.g. the cursor goes all crazy and requires a reboot to be fixed.

I agree with danvari, same thing happened here.

please add "inputproto" as dependency. your PKGBUILD does not compile for me until this is installed.

I just wanted to let ya know that the 0.8.1 beta version driver didn't work for me, and also for others (see http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=421375).

Anyhows the 0.8.0 production version worked fine :), so maybe ya should just stick to it.
