HELP WANTED .....
I am trying to use a wacom pressure tablet to drive the X pointer to be able to use this tablet into a paint system.
In a previous IRIX version 4.0.1, I was able to attach the wacom to
the X pointer ( using the /usr/people/4Dgifts/examples/devices/input/X/setptr program ). At that time, I had problems to get pressure information ( It was not possible to attach the pointer to the tablet and at the same time, to use the wacom as an extension device ).
I changed the OS (4.0.5C ) and now, I can't even attach the wacom to the X pointer !!!
When I try to attach the tablet to the X Pointer, I get the following message:
X Error of failed request: BadDevice, invalid or uninitialized input device
Major opcode of failed request: 132 (XInputExtension)
Minor opcode of failed request: 12 (X_ChangePointerDevice)
Value 0x0
Serial number of failed request: 17
Current serial number in output stream: 17
My questions are:
- How is it possible to attach the wacom to the X pointer in 4.0.5?
- How is it possible to change the wacom resolution without having
to change the the wacom stream device in the kernel ?
- How is it possible to get the pressure events when the tablet is used as a pointer ?
Thanks in advance
