[PD] Re: Wacom tablet on OS X to HID, but not to cursor

[Rich E]

I just got a Wacom Intuos3 and I'm curious to learn how to get all its
features working in Pd / Mac.  So far, I can get relative x/y movement
and three buttons with Mac's built-in driver and [hid], but nothing
else works.  Kinda just like a mouse for right now.  I also don't get
anything in Pd with the Wacom driver.

Hans,

Would you mind sharing what steps you took to get the tablet working
correctly in Linux?  So far the only directions I've found (on the
Linux-Wacom website) haven't been to successful... they also suggest
recompiling my kernel to support the wacom driver.  Not too willing to
do that.

Regards,
Richie
