How to Use

Known Problems

  • OpenSolaris builds before snv_115:
          Not tested.

          HAL input device support was not integrated until snv_115.
          The Wacom X.org XInput driver v0.8.4-4 may comiple with our
          patch, but Wacom USB tablets will not be listed in HAL device
          list. You need to edit xorg.conf to make your tablets working.
  • OpenSolaris builds since snv_130:
          Please use X.org Wacom Tablet driver and tools v0.10.4.

          We will contribute our modifications for Solaris porting back
          into the upstream.

          See http://linuxwacom.sf.net for newer versions with Solaris
          support.
