http://linuxwacom.sourceforge.net/index.php/dl This version supports kernel 2.6.[15|16] and should be bumped. Please note that the version has the "-1" appendixed, therefore simply copying over the ebuild did not work out.
Created attachment 87622 [details, diff] Difference between the 0.7.2 ebuild and the 0.7.4 ebuild Hi, here's a diff to show what needs changing between the 0.7.2 ebuild and the 0.7.4 ebuild. I realise adding the -1 in manually is a pain, but I couldn't see a much better way of doing it, 0.7.4.1 didn't seem like the right route to go, but I could be wrong. Also note this no longer need the modular X patch, it'll install it in the correct place, but please note it's installing in /usr/X11R6/lib... rather than /usr/lib... Since X11R6 is a symlink, it'd be best to install it direct to /usr/lib but I didn't get that far. The reason I've posted this is because with the recent patch to fix mousewheel inversion (in >=gentoo-sources-2.6.16-r8 and >=vanilla-sources-2.6.17-rc2) actually *causes* mousewheel inversion, if you're still using the linuxwacom-0.7.2 driver... Hope this helps, if there's anything else I can help with, let me know... 5:)
0.7.4-2 is out now... I managed to hack together a bit of an ebuild, but it's that -N bit on the version number that messes things up. 0.7.4_p2 might be the more appropriate way of handling it -- realistically it's a patchlevel rather than a full release. I'll knock up a suitable ebuild in a moment. Upstream seem to have looked after the modular X issue, so that patch shouldn't be necessary now... however, I don't run modular X (Yeah, I'm very conservative about that on production machines). I'd commit it... but I don't want to step on anybody's toes. I also don't want to break anyone's machine. (WORKSFORME isn't exactly good QA, better someone more knowledgeable checks it out ;-) Any thoughts from the x11-drivers people? I too would like to see this package bumped, as the older drivers don't recognise my Graphire 4 tablet.
Created attachment 88314 [details] Updated ebuild: linuxwacom-0.7.4_p2.ebuild I'm compiling the ebuild now... but I've already successfully tested a similar ebuild on another machine, so this should be good to go. Again, appreciated if one of the x11-drivers people could check it over.
Created attachment 89784 [details] compile error with xorg1.1 AND emerge info compiles successfully with xorg-server-1.0.2-r6 but fails with x11-base/xorg-server-1.1.0-r1
Adding a blocker. I wasn't certain exactly which way to go with this (new blocks old, or old blocks new), but these are definitely linked... Has there been any more news on this issue?
I've managed to get linuxwacom to build against xorg-server-1.1.0-r1... but there was a small change required. I'd like to clean this up (so that it detects the version of xorg-server being used) and submit this upstream. That said... 0.7.4-3 is out now... and bug# 137851 has the appropriate ebuild for that... which I shall have a look at shortly. This other bug makes this one redundant, since the other already has the patch for X.org 7.1. Thus, I'll mark this "duplicate" -- since it covers the same issue (bumping the linuxwacom driver). *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 137851 ***
