Does pd have permissions to open /dev/input/wacom (or any of the event*'s)?
the problem i have is that both does not work!

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
