lsmod | grep wacom

try to autogen driver input-wacom-0.11.1 from git, but fails with

configure: WARNING: kernel version 3.0.0-13-generic-pae not supported

Anyone has a solution ?

Continued with sucessful make in 2.6.36 folder and copied wacom.ko to kernel

$ sudo insmod /lib/modules/3.0.0-13-generic-pae/kernel/drivers/input/tablet/wacom.ko
csschsu@omega:~$ dmesg | tail

looks fine ? But still empty system settings screen ( and wacom.ko is not loaded after reboot, been running depmod -a, and modules.dep is updated )

Tried to use wacom on a fresh installed 11.10 on another machine but same problem there.

Note from syslog when connecting wacom to USB ( indicate loading another module ?)

is MTP the cause of missing detection, and if so what to do about it.

Wacom board is a Bamboo CTH-670 and it works ok on windows but I don't :-\

Removed libmtp-common and that clears the message in syslog but wacom table usb device is not detected and the wacom.ko kernel module is not loaded.

00df device isn't included in the list of supported devices in wacom_wac.c, check the the post:

• Appendix 3: BambooPT models released October 2011 (DD,DE,DF) - Natty (11.04) or later

Instructions in the post are a bit contradictory but I finally have the wacom tablet working after downloading wacom-bamboo.tar.gz and unzipping the contents into 2.6.36 in the latest gitcheckout of the input-wacom folder. Downloaded wacom-bamboo.tar.gz from

• Re: [Linuxwacom-discuss] New Bamboo Tablet Testers Needed From: Chris Bagwell - 2011-10-09 20:082

after build, move wacom.ko to the lib/modules/ folder.

wacom is now active, but a warning, there are more diffs between the wacom_wac.c code than just support for the usb device used. How to correctly merge the code changes is not obvious to me. Guess I'm up to new "happy" surprises.

I've used lekensteyn/wacom-tablet ppa repository

Natty 11.04

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:lekensteyn/wacom-tablet
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-generic-pae
sudo apt-get install dkms wacom-dkms

Oneiric 11.10

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:lekensteyn/wacom-tablet
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install dkms wacom-dkms

I too have Oneiric and the same tablet (00df). I report that I have found one most recent item on how to solve the problem. The new information is that there is a repository for not to compile the driver. here is the link http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1515562 As soon as I get time I will try to use it and I'll write the result

Ok, the kernel patch works well, I have used it in Mypaint an inkscape! (gimp actually has a bug)
