I have successfully used the Wacom Volito2 tablet upto and including the 2.6.15-r7 kernel by following the steps at http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-2478951.html#2478951. After upgrading to successive kernels (2.6.16-r7, 2.6.17-r4 and currently 2.6.17-r8), the tablet does not work. In all cases, I have copied my kernel config and have the following options set in the kernel config file: CONFIG_USB_WACOM=m CONFIG_USB_ARCH_HAS_HCD=y CONFIG_USB_ARCH_HAS_OHCI=y CONFIG_USB_ARCH_HAS_EHCI=y CONFIG_USB=m CONFIG_USB_EHCI_HCD=m CONFIG_USB_OHCI_HCD=m CONFIG_USB_HID=m CONFIG_USB_HIDINPUT=y CONFIG_USB_SERIAL=m Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: When I run kernel 2.6.15-r7, dmesg produces: usb 3-2: new low speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 input Wacom Volito2 4x5 as /class/input/input2 wacdump /dev/input/wacom also works ok. When I run kernel 2.6.17-r8, dmesg produces: usb 3-2: new low speed USB device using uhci_hcd and address 2 usb 3-2: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice input Wacom Volito2 4x5 as /class/input/input2 wacdump /dev/input/wacom does not work. Expected Results: wacdump should produce an output.

I am unable to ascertain where the problem lies with my limited understanding of the code.
Does the problem exist on gentoo-sources-2.6.18?
(In reply to comment #2) The problem persists in 2.6.18-r1.
