Linux Support
The pen is supported by the XFree/Xorg Wacom driver.
The pen uses serial and appears on some /dev/ttySnn device where nn is a number. An easy way to find it is to map /dev/ttyS0 to the pen's port and irq. The values can be found under the windows driver properties. Using values from an X41 Tablet 1869-5CU, the command is: # setserial /dev/ttyS0 port 0x0200 irq 5 autoconfig
(you need to run this after every suspend/resume cycle).
This may be inserted into startup scripts in /etc/rc.d/
The X config file needs to be changed to use the stylus. Add the following sections to your xorg.conf:
Section "InputDevice" Driver "wacom" Identifier "cursor" Option "Device" "/dev/ttyS0" Option "Type" "cursor" Option "ForceDevice" "ISDV4" Option "Mode" "Absolute" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Driver "wacom" Identifier "stylus" Option "Device" "/dev/ttyS0" Option "Type" "stylus" Option "ForceDevice" "ISDV4" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Driver "wacom" Identifier "eraser" Option "Device" "/dev/ttyS0" Option "Type" "eraser" Option "ForceDevice" "ISDV4" EndSection
Add the following lines to the ServerLayout section:
InputDevice "cursor" "SendCoreEvents" InputDevice "stylus" "SendCoreEvents"
Check the wacom driver man page and website for other options.
