when building Xorg-x11 7.0 with INPUT_DEVICES="keyboard mouse wacom", then linuxwacom is emerged in order to install the wacom driver for X11. However, it seems that the build process also tries to make the kernel modules. This fails when the kernel is monolythic.

In order to build linuxwacom components (except the kernel modules of course) in an environment with a monolythic kernel, the configure scripts must be called with the following option ./configure --without-kernel Would be desirable to include into the ebuild a check for monolythic kernel and inclusion of this configure option in case this is true. barral
Current stable (0.7.4*) does not compile the module, so does the new ~arch version (0.7.8*).
