XF86Config file for Wacom tablet
Ok, more info. Here's what I needed to do to make Fedora 0.95 work with my Wacom Graphire. 1. Boot Fedora without the Graphire, with my serial mouse, and with the XF86Config file for my serial mouse (attached). 2. Plug in my Graphire. The LED that indicates that it is powered on lights up. 3. Replace the XF86Config file for my serial mouse with the XF86Config file for my Wacom tablet (attached). 4. Restart X. At this point everything pretty much works, except that the mouse cursor is initially frozen and I have to touch the stylus to the tablet to unfreeze it. Once I reboot, it all goes to pieces. The LED on my tablet won't light up, lsusb produces no output, etc. This sounds more like a kernel problem. Created attachment 95500 [details]
XF86Config file for Wacom tablet (reworked)
This is a variant of the original "XF86Config file for Wacom tablet." I got rid
of the hack where I set the CorePointer to a bogus InputDevice, and instead
used the Graphire mouse as the CorePointer. Unfortunately, it made no
difference. All the same symptoms as before.
The problem was with the kernel on the Fedora test3 CDs. kernel-2.4.22-1.2108.nptl seems to work fine. The bug was neither in the kernel nor hotplug, but in rhgb. The reason I didn't notice this before was that when I upgraded from test3 to Rawhide, the init scripts also changed such that the graphical boot never ran. (See the thread "ok, graphical boot, one more time," esp. http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-test-list/2003-October/msg04131.html) When I reenabled rhgb, however, the problem with my Graphire returned, and when I disabled it, the problem went away. I would agree this totally does not sound like a rhgb, but rather kernel problem. Is this still an issue with FC1 with the latest official kernel update and XFree86-4.3.0-55? What about FC2test1 plus all rawhide updates? Possibly possibly if your issue really is isolated to rhgb, please see if the behavior described in Bug #109294 matches your problem. > Possibly possibly if your issue really is isolated to rhgb, please see > if the behavior described in Bug #109294 matches your problem. It's similar, but it doesn't quite match. In bug #109294, the mouse moves eventually, but in my case, the Graphire's mouse never moves. BTW, in the non-graphical boot, the LED on my Graphire (which indicates that it's powered up) doesn't light up until the boot message "Checking module dependencies" comes up. With rhgb running, the LED *never* lights up. I just tried booting the latest rawhide with a wacom tablet and a usb serial port (didn't have a scanner) plugged in. I couldn't reproduce the problem; both the wacom tablet and the serial port show up in lsusb and they both work. I did boot with rhgb. The tablet LED lights up when the USB hci module is loaded in /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit. Okay, so this seems fixed now, thanks ! Daniel |
