Hey,<div><br></div><div>The activity itself merely accepts Wacom tablet input from XInput via the standard GDK events. With your kernel module and with X properly configured, supporting Wacom tablets in activities requires no code at all, and accessing pressure information is a one line addition.<div>
<br></div><div>However, since the OLPC builds do not have the kernel module, and do not have X configured to support Wacom tablets, I provide a script on the Colors! wiki page which will set your computer up. The script downloads and installs your wacom.ko file from d.l.o, and replaces xorg-dcon.conf with one that has the needed devices.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Cheers,</div><div>-Wade<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Dec 21, 2008 at 5:39 PM, <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:pgf@laptop.org">pgf@laptop.org</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">
hi wade -- how does colors deal with the lack of wacom support in<br>
the kernel? do you bundle a driver module?<br>
