Hi,
here (same specs) it works fine with the driver above *and*
xf86-input-wacom-0.11.0
Build with "checkinstall" to a package named
"xserver-xorg-input-wacom-custom" (*.deb).
checkinstall asks for package name and things like "provides",
"conflicts", "replaces". The latter options I set to
"xserver-xorg-input-wacom".
http://sourceforge.net/projects/linuxwacom/files/
Changes in /etc/X11/xorg.conf:
Section "InputDevice"
Driver "wacom"
Identifier "stylus"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom" # USB ONLY
Option "Type" "stylus"
Option "USB" "on" # USB ONLY
Option "KeepShape" "on" # Monitor is 4:3
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Driver "wacom"
Identifier "eraser"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom" # USB ONLY
Option "Type" "eraser"
Option "USB" "on" # USB ONLY
Option "KeepShape" "on"
EndSection
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Default Layout"
Screen "Default Screen" 0 0
InputDevice "Generic Keyboard" "CoreKeyboard"
InputDevice "Configured Mouse" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "stylus"
InputDevice "eraser"
EndSection
"xsetwacom" for tuning:
$ xsetwacom list
stylus id: 6 type: STYLUS
eraser id: 7 type: ERASER
Wacom BambooPT 2FG 4x5 Pen stylus id: 13 type: STYLUS
Wacom BambooPT 2FG 4x5 Pen eraser id: 19 type: ERASER
Used settings:
$ xsetwacom set 13 Touch off # I don't use it
$ xsetwacom set 7 Area 2000 28 14133 9128 # centering for monitor 4:3
$ xsetwacom set 6 Area 2000 28 14133 9128
$ xsetwacom set 13 Area 2000 28 14133 9128
$ xsetwacom set 19 Area 2000 28 14133 9128
