Description Arlinton Bourne 2007-10-25 17:23:19 UTC 
Description of problem:
Our serial driver doesn't pick up the newer Wacom Serial (pnp) device. It
doesn't, by default, link actual device to anything in /dev (in particular
/dev/ttyS0)

The work around is to use the setserial program to configure /dev/ttyS0 to point
to the device.

There's a patch upstream to prevent this work around and looks like it is slated
for 2.6.24 (it's in Linus's tree)

I've attached and tested the patch and wrote a udev rule to "Do the Right Thing".

Hope it helps...
