A few wacom tablet patches would be helpful in F13: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/jikos/hid.git;a=commit;h=0e253fdb3b5739fd8514f617ec582762bcfaea48 http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/jikos/hid.git;a=commit;h=d01799b2f399603ae4cecc06f6ea146c57519cb1 http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/jikos/hid.git;a=commit;h=59d2334ac9f4255f5f8f3e4e1bf41653e0bba99e This should fix the buttons on the pad itself, as well as expose the battery information to the desktop.
There's also a bug where the scroll wheel on older tablets (like my graphire 3) generates button 5 events no matter which way you roll it, so the scroll wheel only goes down. There's a reference to a patch here that's supposed to fix it: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/132641/ Apparently this patch is a year old and applies to 2.6.35.3 My machine is running 2.6.35.11-83.fc14.x86_64 but I'm still seeing this bug.
Sorry, not a year old :-) caffeine has worn off
This message is a reminder that Fedora 13 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 13. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '13'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 13's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 13 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
These patches are all in F15
