Distribution: Fedore Core 3, but is independent. Hardware Environment: AMD Athlon +2800 Software Environment: Problem Description: In the blacklist of hid-core.c of kernel 2.6.10 and previous, there are several Wacom devices available. The Wacom Intuos 3 is missing. When connecting the Wacom Intuos 3 with USB, it is recognized as an other tablet, preventing the use of the Wacom driver, and not making all features available. The Linux Wacom project on http://sourceforge.net/projects/linuxwacom/ has made this device available in the hid-core.c and wacom.c modules but needs kernel rebuild by the end user. As there are already wacom.c and hid-core.c modules availble in the 2.6.10 kernel, it makes sence to add the latest once into the standard linux kernel. Steps to reproduce: Put the Wacom Intuos 3 into the USB connector. The /var/log/message shows: Dec 27 09:56:28 localhost kernel: ohci_hcd 0000:00:02.0: wakeup Dec 27 09:56:29 localhost kernel: usb 2-2: new full speed USB device using address 3 Dec 27 09:56:34 localhost kernel: usb 2-2: control timeout on ep0in Dec 27 09:56:39 localhost kernel: drivers/usb/input/hid-core.c: timeout initializing reports Dec 27 09:56:39 localhost kernel: Dec 27 09:56:39 localhost hal.hotplug[4527]: DEVPATH is not set Dec 27 09:56:39 localhost kernel: input,hiddev96: USB HID v1.00 Mouse [Tablet PTZ-630] on usb-0000:00:02.0-2
Great, send a patch for the device then. Also, the latest -mm releases have a wacom driver update in them, see if that fixes the problem for you.
In hid-core.c the current blacklist is: #define USB_VENDOR_ID_WACOM 0x056a #define USB_DEVICE_ID_WACOM_PENPARTNER 0x0000 #define USB_DEVICE_ID_WACOM_GRAPHIRE 0x0010 #define USB_DEVICE_ID_WACOM_INTUOS 0x0020 #define USB_DEVICE_ID_WACOM_PL 0x0030 #define USB_DEVICE_ID_WACOM_INTUOS2 0x0040 #define USB_DEVICE_ID_WACOM_VOLITO 0x0060 It should be extended with the INTUOS3 #define USB_DEVICE_ID_WACOM_INTUOS3 0x00B0 Just a new wacom driver file, as it exists in the -mm patch is not sufficient.
This is fixed now.
