Ubuntu Installation :: Make Genius G-pen F610 Tablet Work On 10.04 Lucid?
Jul 10, 2010
This is how i made my Genius G-Pen F610 Tablet on Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx. Everything works but the buttons the sides of the tablet, the buttons of the pen(stylus) work as well. First I was looking at these websites, as a reference: [URL] So, let's begin our journey:
1. Add this ppa: ppa:doctormo/xorg-wizardpen (I've went to System-Administration-Software Sources-Other Software-Add and copy-pasted this at the APT line: ppa:doctormo/xorg-wizardpen )
2. Install xserver-xorg-input-wizardpen (I went to System-Administration-Synaptic Package Manager and typed wizardpen (on the QuickSearch bar) It showed me that there is a packet called xserver-xorg-input-wizardpen, I have right-clicked and check Mark for Installation, and then went to Apply button.)
3. Run cat /proc/bus/input/devices in the terminal (I openned Applications-Accessories-Terminal and there I pasted (by that I mean pressing Middle-mouse button this way you can easely paste) this code: cat /proc/bus/input/devices)Now it will show all the devices on your computer, so you need to find the event for your tablet. My F610 tablet is recognised by Ubuntu like this:

I want to get this pen tablet (not tablet computer) to work (for drawing in kolorpaint / krita / gimp etc)
Omnipen OP-906 (ancient mid-90's device). It came with floppy with drivers for Windows 3.11 and old Mac Plugs into ttyS0 (com1. It has "tablet mode" and "mouse mode". It is meant to always start in "tablet mode", but if I give it a small power interruption (take out the AC plug from the wall halfway and quickly plug it back in), it sometimes kicks into "mouse mode". The original driver is supposed to be able to switch the modes

I installed Kubuntu 10.04 and wanted to try if, finally, ibus works. I installed ibus and ibus-anthy from repository (I need the japanese input), then I launched Ibus preferences from the menu, set it, and the icon appears in the kickbar.But nothing happens if I press ctrl-space. Same problem there was on 9.10.I also added the lines to the home/.bashrc as the popup says.
export GTK_IM_MODULE=ibus
export XMODIFIERS=@im=ibus
export QT_IM_MODULE=ibus

Recently installed ubuntu on my gateway m275 tablet alongside windows xp tablet. Everything, including the stylus/pen without any poking around. However, I'm having trouble getting the screen orientation to rotate.
If I go to system-preferences-monitors, the only option for rotation is "normal".
Here is my xorg.conf:

I m on ubuntu 10.04 and have a Trust tb 4200 tablet.. and having problems with my trust tablet runing on ubuntu.. i pluged in the tablet and to my amaze it started working right away until i pressed the pen on the tablet.. i cant seem to move the mouse curser anymore unless i touch the pen on the tablet. (wich acts as a click) so i thought that i may be missing the drivers.. i checked thes forum and there was a post to install the aptek drivers which i did (but still worked the same) and i found out thet there was no 10-aiptek.fdi (in "/etc/hal/fdi/policy/") so i created one and copied one from a post.. in [url]...3&postcount=50 but still cant move the courser without touching.. its like if it did no diference at all.. i also changed the values in the 10-aiptek.fdi with no changes.. the size of the tablet is just the size of the screen so i am using the full tablet.. and no buttons work...
I think the drivers are not workin.. in the synaptic it shows as intalled...

I just bought an aiptek re-branded waltop graphics tablet, and it sort-of works, but when I click, the click wont end until I move the pen out of range of the graphics tablet, does anybody know how to fix this?
EDIT: Also, when I edit the 50-wacom.conf file as instructed in a tutorial (I just uncommented the part about waltop) it just makes the cursor jump to the top left corner when i try to use the pen.

Upgraded to 11.04 and my graphical tablet is recognized no longer Any idea how can I set it up? Wizardpen is not working, the ppa on my repository says something about "Natty" instead of "Maverick" (As than before)
If I type lsusb on my terminal then this line appears:
Code:
Which is completely false because the Genius MousePen 5x4 Tablet is this one
And I have the Genius Easypen i405, which is this one

I have noticed they sell digital writing tablets that have the ability to show the pen strokes both on the tablet's display and on the computer's monitor at the same time, and I think they are called LCD digital tablets and they serve as both a second computer monitor AND a writing tablet combined in one, such as the Wacom Cintiq, and must be connected both by USB as well as with a VGA/DVI port, and you have the ability to open up a drawing application directly from the tablet such as Paint where you can draw or write on the tablet's display. And you can see what you are writing on the tablet's display. Then you save the results to a JPEG file, for example.
But I do not want a digtal tablet quite as elaborate as that. I am looking for something similar to the credit card terminals used in stores where you can sign your name directly on the display after swiping your credit card, and you can see what you are writing as you write. Then your signature shows up on a paper receipt later. Do they make digital tablets like that for the home user, and if they do, would they have to hook up to the VGA/DVI port on your video card? What are they called and where can I get one?
I've searched several online stores but they do not say if you can see what you are writing on the tablet's display. I already have a Wacom tablet in Linux but you can not see what you are writing on the tablet. I have to keep looking up at my computer's monitor to see what I am writing and proficiency is reduced as a result. And again, I do not want a tablet as elaborate as I described in my first paragraph. I want something simplier, such as the type used at a credit card terminal.

how to upgrade my ubuntu 9.10 system. I would like to do a clean install of lucid, but I have way too many files. I have a big hard drive, so space was not a problem, and things got out of hand ^^ One thing you should know is that I have plenty of room for my files even if the drive was half it's size, so my idea is possible space-wise. (And I am prepared if this fails. I have backed up my stuff, but would like if it I didn't have to rely on that)
What I want to do is make a blank partition with gparted and install lucid on it. Then I want to keep it a dual boot just to make sure my hardware is working ok, then move my home folder to the new partition, make the lucid partition take the whole hard drive, and delete karmic. I do not want to upgrade because I messed up my install a lot while learning linux, so I really need to start over.

It seems xdg-su is unable to accept my admin/root password whenever I try to install a new AIR application or make an upgrade.Upon every attempt to add my admin/root password I get an error: "su: Authentication failure". In the end: "Error# 5100"!I have recently upgraded to Lucid, but the problem has arisen back in Karmic.

I installed Lucid earlier today (took about 4 hours as karmic wouldn't write the cd so had to use wifes Mac OS)
In the 2 previous releases of ubuntu I have had to add irqpoll to the boot line in order for my USB ports to work. I dont understand why this works but it does.
With the new "noninteractive" boot I can't work out how to add irqpoll to the boot sequence.

I am really not very Linux savy. Have been using Karmic for about a year and wanted to test Lucid NBR on my netbook by running it from a USB stick first. Had loads of problems and bugs with it - However even an idiot like me can work out most of them. However I am suffering from this bug (I think)

Last month I installed a newer MoBo + CPU and PSU, (See system specs in my signature) and moved from Maverick to Lucid 10.04.
I was running Natty 11.04 64bit up until a couple of days ago, but that was locking up like mad. I did a fresh install of 10.04 over the whole HDD yesterday...though cannot recall it asking me if I wanted 32 or 64bit...will neeed to check)
I'm using an ATI Radeon (Sapphire?) x1650 PRO graphics card - but borrowed from a friend as my previous card wouldn't fit in the upgrade motherboard. Ubuntu is running quite fast with it but often stutters when on Firefox or Chrome. With Natty the system would lock up at least once an hour, with Lucid - at the moment it's only locked up once in 6 hours... I'm assuming this is just problems with Ubuntu and not the card. I get no odd lines or color on the screen.
I'll need to give this card back at some point... I'm wondering if people could suggest other cards (Nvidia/ATI or other) that are known to work happily with Ubuntu 10.04. I've got a budget of around �40, but then I'm not gaming so guess shouldn't need anything too high spec. (My PSU has a PCI-E connector if needed...though doubt it will be!)

There must be something turned on in the security settings keeping Desktop Launchers from working.I have verified that the launchers have execute bit turned on in the permissions, yet when try to start one, I get an alert window saying this is an Untrusted application launcher.How do I disable this feature, or in the alternative, make them trusted?

I upgraded my Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy) system to 10.04 (Lucid) and my remote X applications no longer work. The problem seems to pertain to Xauthority. When the remote X client attempts to access the X server on Lucid it receives an error indicating that there is no matching MIT Magic Cookie (hereafter cookie) for the display. It turns out that this is true. I'm of the belief that the subject cookie should be generated for my display when the X session is started on Lucid.I thought this was being done by GDM when I logged on. However, $HOME/.Xauthority contains only 1 cookie which is for the display identified as "Pluto/Unix:0" (Pluto is the name of the host). I'm expecting a cookie for a display identified as "Pluto.my.test:0" where "my.test" is the domain name for my network.

I switched from Sidux to Ubunbtu Lucid yesterday. On Sidux I had to struggle a little but to get this scanner working but at the end everything was fine. However on Lucid no success, I googled around and followed different instructions found in the www. sane-find-scanner and scanimage -L can find it (but it takes some time for scanimage -L) however I cannot scan and the scanner also does not react at all. The reaction of iscan and all the other scanning software is not consistent, error messages vary. A am thinking about switching back to some older Ubuntu version in case that I cannot get it running, I need the scanner in order to send fax

I've just upgraded my web/tv setup from 9.10 to lucid and everything seems to be working apart from my infra red remote control.The remote was working fine in 9.10 and was used to control mythtv-frontend however after the upgrade the remote appears to be controlling ubuntu natively, i.e. right left up and down control what is selected on the desktop where as previously the remote was set to only work within mythtv. Whilst native support for my remote control is muchly appreciated(if that is what this is) where can I configure the controls so that it is usable again?

My Mythweb is asking for authentication but none username/password will work. It just prompts for authentication over and over again. I've found few configurations regarding authentication:
in /etc/apache2/httpd.conf I have following lines:
<Directory "/var/www/mythweb">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AuthType Basic
AuthName "MythTV"
AuthUserFile /etc/apache2/httpd-passwords
require user user1 user2
[Code]...
none of the username/paswd pairs in Authuserfile are working? Can there be yet another file / configuraton somewhere? How do I know which one apache is using right now?

I cannot make Virtualbox work in Ubuntu 10.04 (upgraded from Ubuntu 8.04). I tried both to install Virtualbox OSE from Package Manager and Virtualbox 3.2 downloaded from the Virtualbox site (32 bits version, as my OS). Installation is OK, but when I try to run it, I get an error message:
Error in home. virtualbox.xml (line3) cannot handle settings version 1.2-linux. Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (080004005). Virtualbox would be good because it allows running some Windows applications or games. Wine seems useless, only a couple of applications run in Wine and practically no games. It keeps warning me about DirectX etc. I can't understand why Wine exists at all.

I don't want to be in situation where i installed Ubuntu and touch screen does not work.

The announcement of several new make scripts in the 2.6.32 release notes is very exciting.Most people uses the kernel shipped by distros - and that's good. But some people like to compile their own kernels from kernel.org, or maybe they like following the Linux development and want to try it. Configuring your own kernel, however, has become a very difficult and tedious task - there're too many options, and some times userspace software will stop working if you don't enable some key option. You can use a standard distro .config file, but it takes too many time to compile all the options it enables.
To make easier the process of configuration, a new build target has been added: make localmodconfig. It runs "lsmod" to find all the modules loaded on the current running system. It will read all the Makefiles to map which CONFIG enables a module. It will read the Kconfig files to find the dependencies and selects that may be needed to support a CONFIG. Finally, it reads the .config file and removes any module "=m" that is not needed to enable the currently loaded modules. With this tool, you can strip a distro .config of all the unuseful drivers that are not needed in our machine, and it will take much less time to build the kernel. There's an additional "make localyesconfig" target, in case you don't want to use modules and/or initrds.

I'm fairly new to using Linux. I just had a simple opinion based, question and one direct question: 1) What are some package options I can use to make my desktop environment prettier? I have Compiz Fusion installed, I use the cube and and Expo. I'd like to have background options for the expo and I'd like some better, Sci-FI-ish Themes under System>Preferences>Appearence. 2) As for what I need to know directly, I have a built in Microphone on my Laptop (Compaq 8510w) and I'm fairly sure I haven't installed a package or driver option to allow it to work for Skype ect... What might that/those package(s) be?
