[ubuntu] Wacom tablet help? 21 weeks 6 days ago

I have an old Wacom CTE-440 and Bamboo Fun tablets. I've tried installing the driver for them, file name "xf86-input-wacom-0.17.0", yet I don't know how to successfully get it to work.

I am going to buy Wacom Bamboo tablet, is it works with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 64-bit?

Are there other tablets out there which works with Ubuntu?

Thanks :KS

EDIT : Is it possible to use Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 as drawing tablet on Ubuntu? It's worth mentioning because it has offered 1,024 pressure sensitivity with its S Pen. It would be great if it works.

Wacom B. P&T CTH-470 1 year 5 weeks ago

Hi, i don't know if i can help or not. But i just bought the CTH-470(M) today and have it working in Archlinux.As far as packages relating to Wacom,  i am using the xf86-input-wacom-git, libwacom, wacom-utility and wacom-udev packages in the AUR.

Hi all,

I decided to write here because I was wondering if there are any Wacom Bamboo (MTE-450) tablet users who experience any resume problems with their tablets on 11.3. I experience this issue on 11.2 - tablet was not working after resume from suspending to RAM - I had to replug it in order to make it work. Now when I upgraded to 11.3, the issue was still there.

Wacom tablet on Suse 11.2 3 years 23 weeks ago

Hello,

on 11.1 (64 Bit) I had my Wacom Bamboo working, using the manual I found here: Wacom Linux Installation - GIMPForum

Hello,

I have a problem with autoconnecting/hotplug the Wacom (Bamboo, model MTE-450A). After a reboot the leds on the buttons are flashing and the tablet doesn't work, to get it to work I need to reconnect the USB cable to the tablet.

The system does recognize the Wacom, lsusb lists it but dmesg gives somewhat of a error during startup:

I was looking at ordering an extra stylus before my Note comes in, was wondering if anyone tried the Wacom yet. I use a Wacom Intuos tablet, and like their stuff, but didn't know if it was any better than say the pen with the eraser (the other one I was looking at). Wish Wacom had done an eraser since plan on using PS Touch a lot (I'm assuming the other pens eraser works in that?).
