Hi, I desperately need suggestions about how to make my aiptek tablet work. |
| 2 |
|

I successfully emerged xorg 7.0-r1 with USE flag: INPUT_DEVICES="aiptek |
| 5 |
evdev keyboard mouse synaptics" (x11-drivers/xf86-input-aiptek and |
| 6 |
xf86-input-evdev version 1.0.0.5), compiled the standard aiptek driver |
| 7 |
in the kernel source (the heavily patched 2.6.16-beyond3), configured |
| 8 |
xorg.conf, crossed my fingers and plugged in my roaring aiptek 12000UI |
| 9 |
tablet... |
| 10 |
...KABOOOM.... |
| 11 |
no absolute pointing and no pressure levels!!! |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
So I checked the aiptektablet project at sourceforge (CVS version, not |
| 14 |
the old unified_package), managed to compile the gaipetk software but |
| 15 |
didn't succeded in building the x_server_driver nor the kernel_module. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
Well, the kernel module compiled fine but when i plug-in the usb tablet |
| 18 |
dmesg says. |

..so I switched back to the standard kernel driver, dowloaded a |
| 79 |
precompiled version of the x_server driver (the sourceforge one!) and |
| 80 |
put it in /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/ . |
| 81 |
Now I have pressure levels and absolute pointing but the tablet doesn't |
| 82 |
work fine. For example the gaiptek software says there is no X driver |
| 83 |
associated with the tablet ( o.O ) and when I try to configure the pen |
| 84 |
in gimp (2.2) than the mouse stops working and the programs crashes few |
| 85 |
seconds later. |
| 86 |
|
| 87 |
How can I solve? |
| 88 |
|
| 89 |
Why does the x_driver gives me tons of errors if I try to compile it? |
| 90 |
(I've no programmig skills) |
| 91 |
|
| 92 |
|
| 93 |
Maybe somebody has a secret receipt to make this tablet work? |
| 94 |
Any suggestion will be **really** appreciated!! |
| 95 |
|
| 96 |
Thanks in advance. |
