Hi,
quick fix:
sudo chown root:audio /dev/input/*
this changes the group ownership of everything under /dev/input to group audio, of which you are presumably a member. This makes your system slightly more vulnerable, but it will be reverted the next time you boot.

Hi,
I have been unable to get the Ubuntu HID object working with my mouse or my Wacom Graphire4 in Ubuntu 8.1. I am currently using Wintablet in windows but to use it the top window has to be wintablet, not PD so PD can't get keyboard events at the same time as wacom events.
I don't get error messages but no events come out. I searched the mail archives and followed the advice there. I am not getting any output when I do sudo cat /dev/input/event0-10 or /dev/input/mouse0 or /dev/input/mice or /dev/input/wacom. The Xorg.conf doesn't contain anything related to Wacom, it is all handled by HAL in Ubuntu 8.1. Is that where the problem is coming from? Has anyone sorted this out already?
Ah right, you have to do something with udev to make it permanent, I
think.
