Okay, I found that the Linux Wacom stuff has a website. It appears
Debian doesn't use the /dev/input/wacom but /dev/input/event[0-9]
(event0, event1, event2, etc...) (I've looked for references to "wacom"
case-insensitive throughout my machine)
http://linuxwacom.sourceforge.net/index.php/main
If that doesn't work, nothing will.
One things I found to help out Debian users was an old doc from there
http://linuxwacom.sourceforge.net/index.php/howto/debwcmdrv
The only parts you really need to worry about is:
Prepare for the /dev/input/wacom link
In /etc/udev/rules.d/10-wacom.rules, add the following line:
KERNEL="event*", SYSFS{idVendor}="056a", NAME="input/%k", SYMLINK="input/wacom%e"
Thus the drivers will find the Wacom tablet, whatever
its /dev/input/eventX address is.
I would change that to:
Prepare for the /dev/input/wacom link:
Create a new file "/etc/udev/wacom.rules" put the following line
in that file:
KERNEL="event*", SYSFS{idVendor}="056a", NAME="input/%k", SYMLINK="input/wacom%e"
Then in the directory "/etc/udev/rules.d" perform the following:
ln -s ../wacom.rules 010_wacom.rules
Thus the drivers will find the Wacom tablet, whatever
the /dev/input/eventX attached is.
I'd just setup your stuff accordingly to with the exceptions noted:
http://linuxwacom.sourceforge.net/index.php/howto/x11
So, let us hope this works.
