Setting up your tablet
General information
This guide is based on the newest release: *ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon) For an *ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper Drake)-version, see TabletSetupWizardpenDapper For an *ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn)-version, see TabletSetupWizardpenFeisty
Installing needed packages
Open a terminal Install some needed packages - Run this command:
sudo apt-get install xutils libx11-dev libxext-dev x-dev build-essential xautomation xinput
Downloading and installing the driver
Download the wizardpen driver, and extract it! - Run these commands:
wget http://www.dallerweb.dk/ubuntu/wizardpen-driver-0.5.0.tar.gz
tar -xvzf wizardpen-driver-0.5.0.tar.gz
cd wizardpen-driver-0.5.0
In gutsy, there seems to be an issue with the compilation of the driver. To fix this, I've compiled the driver on a dapper-system, and uploaded it to my site. To install "my" driver, run these commands: If you are running i386: (This is the one you should choose, in case you don't know)
wget http://www.dallerweb.dk/ubuntu/wp/i386/wizardpen_drv.so
...and if you are running AMD64: (Please send me a mail if this works! - I'm not able to test it myself!)
wget http://www.dallerweb.dk/ubuntu/wp/AMD64/wizardpen_drv.so
Then, regardless of architecture, run these commands:
sudo cp wizardpen_drv.so /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/
sudo cp wizardpen_drv.so /usr/lib/xorg/modules/
Setting up udev (If the tablet is USB)
Connect your tablet, if it is not connected yet. Find out what the device is called: (product) - Run this command:
cat /sys/bus/usb/devices/*/product
The output will look something like this: (depending on your system)
Tablet WP8060U UHCI Host Controller UHCI Host Controller UHCI Host Controller EHCI Host Controller
Note the product of the tablet (obviously Tablet WP8060U in my case!) Now, add a udev rule: (Note that the SYSFS{product} is tablet-specific! - See output from above command!) Run these commands:
sudo bash
echo 'BUS=="usb", KERNEL=="event*", SYSFS{product}=="Tablet WP8060U", NAME="input/%k", SYMLINK+="tablet-event", MODE="0666"' >> /etc/udev/rules.d/010_local.rules
exit
Restart udev - Run this command:
sudo /etc/init.d/udev restart
Check that the syslink has been created - Run this command:
ls -la /dev/tablet-event
If it outputs a line, it means that it succeeded!
Calibration
{{https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IconsPage?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=IconHint2.png%7D%7D Note: In the subsection, you'll find output from calibrate! If you tablet is listed there, you can just use that output instead!
- If you tablet isn't listed, I would love to recieve an email with the output, and the model of your tablet! (See email at the end of the page!)
If you want to calibrate yourself, just proceed. Enter the "calibrate"-directory - Run this command:
cd calibrate
Build the calibration tool - Run this command:
make
Calibrate in order to find the edges of your tablet/digitizer - Run this command:
sudo ./wizardpen-calibrate /dev/tablet-event
Save the output from wizardpen-calibrate (the last 12 lines!) - You'll need it later in this howto!
Calibration output (If calibrate for some reason doesn't work!)
{{https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IconsPage?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=IconHint2.png%7D%7D Skip this section if calibrate worked for you! Tablet W5540U (UC-Logic):
Section "InputDevice" Identifier "WizardPen Tablet" Option "SendCoreEvents" "true" Driver "wizardpen" Option "Device" "/dev/tablet-event" Option "TopX" "2199" Option "TopY" "3598" Option "BottomX" "30325" Option "BottomY" "29278" Option "MaxX" "30325" Option "MaxY" "29278" EndSection
Tablet W8060U (UC-Logic):
Section "InputDevice" Identifier "WizardPen Tablet" Option "SendCoreEvents" "true" Driver "wizardpen" Option "Device" "/dev/tablet-event" Option "TopX" "826" Option "TopY" "2626" Option "BottomX" "32747" Option "BottomY" "32762" Option "MaxX" "32747" Option "MaxY" "32762" EndSection
Tablet PF1209 (UC-LOGIC)

Setting up X
Now we are ready to edit the xorg.conf file! Take a backup - Run this command:
sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup
Edit the file - Run this command:
sudo vim /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Press "I" - So that "-- INSERT --" appears! Insert the output from calibrate into xorg.conf: (just place it below your generic mouse!) Add the following line in the "ServerLayout" section:
InputDevice "WizardPen Tablet" "AlwaysCore"
Save the file, and exit the editor! (Press "ESC" and write ":wq" and press "Enter")
Making X start without a tablet connected
Now, the driver should NOT be initialized, if the tablet is NOT found! The wizardpen-driver does not support hotplugging, so we should run a script on startup, to define whether or not the tablet is present. Open /etc/rc.local - Run this command:
sudo vim /etc/rc.local
Press "I" - So that "-- INSERT --" appears! ...and insert some code: (insert it JUST above "exit 0")
XORG_CONF=/etc/X11/xorg.conf if [ -e /dev/tablet-event ]; then sed -ie 's/^\(\s*\)\#\(\s*InputDevice\s\s*\"WizardPen\ Tablet\"\s\s*\"AlwaysCore\"\)\s*$/\1\2/' "$XORG_CONF" echo "Udev created /dev/tablet-event = Tablet present! - Tablet-driver enabled" else sed -ie 's/\(^\s*InputDevice\s\s*\"WizardPen\ Tablet\"\s\s*\"AlwaysCore\"\)\s*$/\#&/' "$XORG_CONF" echo "Udev did NOT create /dev/tablet-event = tablet NOT present! - Tablet-driver disabled" fi
...so that the file looks something like this: (in case you haven't added anything else to the file!)
#!/bin/sh -e # # rc.local # # This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel. # Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other # value on error. # # In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution # bits. # # By default this script does nothing. XORG_CONF=/etc/X11/xorg.conf if [ -e /dev/tablet-event ]; then sed -ie 's/^\(\s*\)\#\(\s*InputDevice\s\s*\"WizardPen\ Tablet\"\s\s*\"AlwaysCore\"\)\s*$/\1\2/' "$XORG_CONF" echo "Udev created /dev/tablet-event = Tablet present! - Tablet-driver enabled" else sed -ie 's/\(^\s*InputDevice\s\s*\"WizardPen\ Tablet\"\s\s*\"AlwaysCore\"\)\s*$/\#&/' "$XORG_CONF" echo "Udev did NOT create /dev/tablet-event = tablet NOT present! - Tablet-driver disabled" fi exit 0
Save the file, and exit the editor! (Press "ESC" and write ":wq" and press "Enter") Now you can test udev's ability to detect the tablet - Run this command:
sudo /etc/init.d/rc.local start
The output will tell you if it is present or not! - And it should match reality! (try to disconnect it, and try again! - connect, and then again! - etc...) You should now be able to restart X and have the tablet working as a mouse. I'm still working on a way to support hotplugging, but the above code-example will make X start without a present tablet.
Configuring the buttons on the pen
I'm working on a wizard for this task! In the meantime, look into the package "xinput" which is installed first in this guide. Here is a list of numbers with their corresponding function:
Number | Function |
0 | No action (only movement) |
1 | Left button click |
2 | Middle Button click |
3 | Right Button click |
4 | Scroll up (one click equals one step of scroll wheel in my logitech mouse) |
5 | Scroll down |
Configuring the tablet HOTSPOTS
I'm working on a daemon for this task! It's working almost well so far, just need a little tweaking, and making it start automatically. The biggest problem is to execute the commands as child-processes (so that a failure doesn't cause the daemon to die!)
Troubleshooting - See this if you have any problems
The command cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep "wizardpen" outputs errors
The output of
cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep "wizardpen"
may reveal several errors, some of them are: Module present, but with compilation-errors:
(II) LoadModule: "wizardpen" (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/wizardpen_drv.so dlopen: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/wizardpen_drv.so: undefined symbol: __stack_chk_fail_local (EE) Failed to load /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/wizardpen_drv.so (II) UnloadModule: "wizardpen" (EE) Failed to load module "wizardpen" (loader failed, 7) (EE) No Input driver matching `wizardpen'
Module missing:
(II) LoadModule: "wizardpen" (WW) Warning, couldn't open module wizardpen (II) UnloadModule: "wizardpen" (EE) Failed to load module "wizardpen" (module does not exist, 0) (EE) No Input driver matching `wizardpen'
The Xserver is not starting after playing with the xorg.conf file
Wow - That's bad! - First of all, check that you set everything right! Well, I suggest that you drop me an email, telling me what went wrong! And then just restore the backup we created - run this command:
sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Everything seems to work, except pressure sensitivity
All the tablets mentioned in "known tablets" has pressure sensitivity support in Linux! If pressure-sensitivity doesn't work, there are 3 possible causes! 1. The driver is not properly installed 2. The tablet is not supported by this driver 3. The application is not properly configured, to accept pressure sensitivity.
Please make sure that your favourite application supports pressure sensitivity.
Application | Support for pressure sensitivity | Guide |
Krita | Full support since 1.6 | Non yet |
Inkscape | Full support | TabletSetupInkscape |
Gimp | Full support - but problems with 2.2.13 | UbuntuHelp:TabletSetupGIMP |
Please tell me about other applications!
Pressure sensitivity works, but is not calibrated well
The section we inserted into xorg.conf holds some options to calibrate the area of the tablet, but I haven't put in options to configure pressure sensitivity, since it varies a lot. You can insert these options to enable MAX and MIN pressure sensitivity: Option "TopZ" "10" Option "BottomZ" "511" Option "MaxZ" "511" Where "TopZ" represents the lowest pressure-level to accept, and "BottomZ"/"MaxZ" represents the maximum pressure-level to accept.
I have problems not solved by the above troubleshooting
Maybe I can help! - But please try the Wizardpen Forum first: (I get tons of support mails, and I simply can't handle all of them myself!) http://www.stud.fit.vutbr.cz/~xhorak28/unb/forum.php Plug in your tablet FIRST (If not already plugged in), and THEN run these commands: This requires that you have downloaded the tar-file to your home-directory! (Which is default!)
cd ~/wizardpen-driver-0.5.0/debug
./debug
The last command (may take some time to execute) will create the file "errorlog" which holds the information I would like in order to be able to help you! {{https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IconsPage?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=IconEnvelope.png%7D%7D Please mail me on: [email protected] (And don't forget to attach the errorlog!)
