Introduction to Wacom

The Linux Wacom Project manages the drivers, libraries, and documentation for configuring and running Wacom graphic tablets under the Linux operating system. It contains diagnostic applications as well as updated kernel drivers and XFree86/X11R6 XInput drivers.

Project Homepage: http://linuxwacom.sourceforge.net/

Dependencies

Caution.png

Note

The current version, 0.7.8, has problems when using xsetwacom if you have build your Xorg7 with XCB. You may want to refer to the home page for a new version that fixes these problems.

Required

Recommended

  • Gtk2 using the ./configure option --with-xinput=yes

Configuration Information

Need to describe the kernel options here. Prior to building the driver, make sure the kernel is configured with support for HID and Input device support (INPUT_EVDEV). Newer kernels also contain support for the Wacom tablets; if you plan to use the kernel module available with the libwacom driver, make sure you have this option built as a module.

Non-Multilib

Compile the package:

./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-dlloader &&
make

Install the package:

make install

Multilib

32Bit

Compile the package:

CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" CXX="g++ ${BUILD32}" \
PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATH32}" USE_ARCH=32 ./configure \
--prefix=/usr --x-libraries=/usr/lib --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu \
--host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --disable-xserver64 --enable-dlloader \
--with-arch=32 --with-xlib=/usr/lib --enable-wacom &&
make

Install the package:

make install

N32

To do

64Bit

Compile the package:

CC="gcc ${BUILD64}" CXX="g++ ${BUILD64}" \
PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATH64}" USE_ARCH=64 ./configure \
--prefix=/usr --libdir=/usr/lib64 --x-libraries=/usr/lib64 \
--enable-xserver64 --enable-dlloader --with-arch=64 --with-xlib=/usr/lib64 \
--enable-wacom &&
make

Install the package:

make install

Configuring

This section should contain information about the post-installation configuration of a package, bootscript(s), other files, creating directories. Omit this section if there is no post-installation configuration required.

Contents

You can find a script here that can be used in conjunction with InstallWatch to make creating this table reasonably pain free.

Installed Directories: /path/to/dir
Installed Programs: Program 1, Program 2
Installed Libraries: library1.{a,so}, library2.{a,so}

Short Descriptions

Program 1 is a program that converts pennies to dollars.
Program 2 is a program that converts dollars to pennies.
library1.{so,a} is a library that contains functions necessary to convert from dollars to pennies and vice versa.
