The problem that I had with /dev/input/even* devices is that it always changes when you unplug/replug your tablet. /dev/input/wacom is a symbolic link to the newly created input, no matter what event* it is.

[hid] uses the input.h struct, which the /dev/input/event* devices give. I don't know what /dev/input/wacom outputs. Try using an /dev/input/event* device.

hello
few years go, i used a wacom with the [gemtablet] object. this was working perfectly. but i now realize that this object is no more part of Gem (since 3 years). the dummy object that replace it say that one must use hid instead. so did i.
but i failed making it work.
i'm using linux and hid from pd svn.
i send a "open /dev/input/wacom" message to the hid object, and get as only answer : info: open 0 info: device 0
if i start pooling, then the wacom did not work anymore, and i have to reboot the computer to make it work again.
playing a bit more with that object made pd to crash.
any suggestion to make my wacom work with hid? any other object that could get data from a wacom? or should i try to get the old sources of gemtablet to compile again???
thanks Cyrille
