Among the satisfactions of this sickly Friday to point out the obvious success in the task of properly configuring my Aiptek graphics tablet on Ubuntu 4.10
"Just imagine, splash!" tell the snooty, and computer scientists in general, those more competent than me .... and I say, "Well you are right, if I had read carefully and in great posts (including those in English), perhaps I would have come sooner."
However, everything starts from the assumption that the Ubuntu version 8.04 already includes drivers aiptek and so there 'no need to go to download complicated things ...
simply type in a terminal:
sudo apt-get install xerver-xorg-input-aiptek
or let all the die through the package manager to download the package xerver-xorg-input-aiptek.
this point you need to tell udev to start identifying our table by creating the folder
/ lib / udev / rules.d
a file like this:
ACTION! = "add We will refer to: you did? "BBBRAVI" how would the jolly Muciaccia.
Now comes the fun ... do not go to reconfigure xorg as suggested in many forums and like myself has done several times by nailing the start of the lynx (old have at least 2 years and relate to relase antiquated), but into the directory:
/ usr/lib/X11/xorg.conf.d
and create another file with sudo gedit with this content:
Section "InputClass" Identifier "pen" MatchProduct "Aiptek
10-aiptek.conf at this point the bulk is done.
Just check the assignment of keys with this command
xinput get-button-map Aiptek
the output should be a something like: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Set in a somewhat 'more precise in this way: xinput set-button-map Aiptek 1 3 2 4 5
and you're done! now you can use your tablet in a manner acceptable ...
