The device configuration information is located in /etc/X11/X0devices. A template file is located at /usr/X11R6/hp/default/X0devices. Uncomment out the full entry for the wacom.1 driver: Begin_Device_Description Name wacom.1 Use Other Path /dev/ttyS1 End_Device_Description Note: the above example assumes serial port 2 of the workstation - make certain that the pathname and serial port match Note: the specific use specification of Other. This merges the tablet input with the X pointer Note: An alternate use specification of Extension. This makes the tablet accessible as an XInput extension device, but it is not used by the server directly If the X server is currently running, it will need to be restarted for the changes to take effect. If your tablet does not respond, check to see if it is powered on and connected to the correct serial port on the computer. Explicitly specifying input device use The X server can be explicitly configured to use a specific input device as the X pointer or X keyboard, or merge the data from an input device with that from the X pointer or keyboard. This configuration is done by adding information to the X*devices file. Explicitly specifying RS-232 input device use Some RS-232C input devices can be used with the X server. A device driver must exist for the desired serial input device, and it must reside in the /usr/X11R6/hp/lib/extensions directory. Input device drivers are usually supplied by the input device vendor along with the input device. To use an RS-232 input device, you must modify the X*devices file to inform the X server which input device driver is to be loaded, the serial port to which it is connected, and how it is to be used. This is done by adding an entry to the X*devices file of the following form: Graphics Administration Guide For Red Hat Linux 6.2
