[hid] works with wacoms in Linux, it is just that Debian and Ubuntu have been working on tightening up the security with each new release, so you have to go thru extra tricks to get data via HID for something other than the X server. I don't know the latest tricks, anyone?
exactly! i have a Wacom Graphire 2 (USB) and everything is working with Ubuntu Jaunty (HAL, .fdi) for example in Gimp pressure is working. BUT [hid] doesn't output. i can see the device (/dev/input/event6 for example) and the features.
i am root so i should be able to poll the tablet, but i guess X11 is taking the control... anyone?
