Ubuntu Installation :: No CD / DVD In Tablet PC P68

Jun 13, 2010

I got from my friend tablet PC called P68. Its some made in china tablet. I like it but i dont like windows 7 which is currently installed. I would like to install Ubuntu on it. Question is which version? Desktop or Notebook? Or maybe there is some completly other version which i could install. THere is no CD/DVD in that tablet so i think i will have to make right decision at start installing Ubuntu through Windows 7 which is already there. I don't want to be in situation where i installed Ubuntu and touch screen does not work.

Ubuntu :: Trust Tablet Tb4200 - Cant Seem To Move Mouse Curser Anymore Unless Touch The Pen On The Tablet

Sep 15, 2010

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...

Ubuntu :: Pen Tablet - Graphical Tablet Is No Longer Recognized

Apr 30, 2011

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

Hardware :: Digital Tablet - Show The Pen Strokes Both On The Tablet's Display And On The Computer's Monitor At The Same Time

Mar 13, 2010

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.

Hardware :: Get Omnipen OP 906 Pen Tablet (not Tablet Computer) To Work

Apr 22, 2011

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

Ubuntu Installation :: Pen Tablet Hover Stops After Clicking - WizardPen

Sep 20, 2010

I'm attempting to set up my "Tablet PF1209" pen tablet in Ubuntu 10.04. There should be 4 spaces before Tablet but this forum removes them. I've followed several of the HOW TOs and the best two I've found were: [URL]

Everything works the way it should except once I 'click' with my pen. After I press down to select something or paint, I can't get the hover feature to return. Well it returns if I unplug and plug it back in. It's kinda hard to use a pen tablet when you can only move the cursor when painting/dragging.

I've never had this issue the last time I used my tablet (Ubuntu 7.04)

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:

Debian Installation :: Squeeze Does Not Run On Fujitsu Siemens ST4121 Tablet PC

Apr 25, 2011

I try to install Debian Squeeze on that tablet PC. Lenny was running fine (even reinstall of Lenny works). The installation seems to run fine, too. The problem shows up after the first reboot of the system. After the first messages are displayed, the screen gets black and develops some vertical white lines that keep getting larger until they fill the complete screen. When I configure the BIOS for a second monitor, the external monitor works, I can log in. But this is at best a diagnosis option, not a solution. Ubuntu shows the same symptoms, btw. Here is the output of lspci:

00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 82830 830 Chipset Host Bridge (rev 04)

Ubuntu Installation :: Toshiba Portege M750 - Cant Find Tablet Control Features To Change Input Devices

May 4, 2010

Ubuntu is perfect for me, except that i have to dual boot sometimes to windows 7 for the one application that wont run in a virtual environment (LockDown Browser, and occasionally onenote). Except, i cant find tablet control features in Ubuntu, to change input devices (the touchscreen is awful, but I cant turn off the option to use finger as an input device. Also, when i boot to windows 7, the mouse track pad/left and right click doesn't work (they work in Ubuntu)? The keyboard does, and so does my stylus (which I have to use as a substitute)

Ubuntu :: Which Distro Should Be Used On A Tablet PC

Jul 19, 2010

which linux distro should be used on a tablet pc. Some of them may seem unrelated, but they are not. I am looking to buy a very thin, very lightweight tablet pc, just like the ipad. However, I can not get the Ipad itself, because it does not have a USB port, and I must have at least one USB port on the tablet.

1. Which linux distro would you install on a tablet pc, (such as the ipad or archos 9) and why? I would like to be able to run a windows OS, simply because that is what I am accustomed to. But alas, I can not. The perfect tablet for me was canceled for this very reason. The HP "Slate". As was the Microsoft brand "Courier" tablet. They were both going to run some lighter weight version of Windows 7, but even that drained the battery so fast that HP ended up canceling the product. So I have to come up with another good OS, that is very lightweight. I really like the look of Kubuntu. Is there any reason I shouldn't install Kubuntu on my tablet PC?

2. Is there a linux mobile? You know how they have windows, mobile, and apple has their little mobile mac OS? Is there a linux mobile type of GUI OS that Would be beneficial to a tablet? Or is linux so conservative on resources, that I could install a full linux OS on a tablet PC such as the joo joo or ipad?

3. Would the system requirements of Kubuntu/Ubunutu/any other distro be easier on a tablet PC's resources than some of the other available OS's for tablets? Do I even have that part right? I am assuming that I can get a full OS on a tablet if I just use a linux distro. But it has to have all the goods. Such as...everything. All the stuff that you would come to expect from a good, full OS. Not some hacked off, scaled down version made to just barely work, so you lose a lot of functionality. 3-D games excluded, of course. I am talking about good touch screen support, good wireless network support, Bluetooth, 3G, webcam, the works.

4. Do you think that apps from Google's android OS would work on Ubuntu/Kubuntu? It is linux based, supposedly. So therefore maybe some of the apps might work?

5. Why are there so many versions of Kubuntu? For example: Right now, 9.1 is available. But they are working on 10.01. So uh... what are you missing out on by just keeping kubuntu 9 and not upgrading to kubuntu 10? I am used to windows, where any updates are free through "Windows Update". So can you just update from kubuntu 9 to kubuntu 10 without having to wipe your hard drive and install a new OS? How does all that work? How does kubuntu/ubuntu differ when it comes to the update process? I don't want to be behind and miss out on new functionality, but at the same time I don't want to have to wipe my hard drive and install the latest version of the distro every year and a half or two years. Can't you just continually update like with windows? I don't think that you can, cause all the linux distros that I have tried, have all said something like "This distribution will be supported until 9/9/99" or something like that. That is a fake date, but you get the idea. They have an expiration date, and if you want all the latest and greatest goodies, then you need to update to the newest version of the distro. I just don't understand how the update process works with linux, at all.

6. And a last, seemingly unrelated question. Do the Android phones do the whole jailbreak thing? Can they become like little wireless routers like the iphone can? This may also be a reason to use google's android OS on my tablet.

Ubuntu :: Limit Pen Tablet To One Display Out Of Two?

Sep 9, 2010

I'm running a

Release 10.04(lucid)
Kernel Linux 2.6.32-24-generic
GNOME 2.30.2

Using NVIDIA Driver Version 195.36.24 with two monitors 1280x1024 each in TwinView configuration My Pen tablet is ID 5543:0005 UC-Logic Technology Corp. Genius MousePen 8x6 Tablet, Wizardpen driver (not sure how to lookup its version) The tablet is currently working just fine except for this one thing I'm trying to fix: it now covers the entire 2560 pixel width of the desktop and 1024 pixel height. Given that the tablet itself has a 4x3 side ratio, it results in its horizontal resolution being half of the vertical one. Basically, when you use it to draw anything you always have to mentally correct what you do by limiting your horizontal movements to only half of vertical ones which makes drawing a (relatively) straight line an impossible task.

So, this got me thinking that I want to make sure the tablet only works on one of the two displays - the one I'd open Gimp and Inkscape on - the only two programs I ever use the tablet with. However, when I look at the calibration settings of the tablet itself, it only allows me to limit the area of the tablet I want to be sensitive, not the area of display. I cannot find any such settings in NVIDIA X Server Settings either although I think this is where it might have been. So, does anyone know how to leave the same size of the tablet drawing area but make it move the cursor only on one particular monitor in TwinView configuration?

Ubuntu :: VirtuialBox: No Cursor For Tablet

Dec 26, 2010

However, even though I have everything installed properly on the Windows guest I can not see my courser when using the tablet. Also, enabling an absolute pointing device in the VirtuialBox settings doesn't help.

Ubuntu :: Get Waltop Tablet To Work?

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.

Ubuntu :: Installing Onto A Internet Tablet?

May 3, 2011

i have purchased an archos 2.8 internet tablet. i have gone through the website and have read that the device is COMPLETeLY open, allowing for people to put android, or even ubuntu onto the device. but do ya think there is any website that google can find with people that have done this? no. the device comes preinstalled with android 2.2 froyo. i enjoy android. but on this little guy i need something a little bit lighter and less bugs. with only having access to a limited french "android market". i certainly got around that and have the full market available, but it was just too much hassle and the device thinks its a phone. what flavor of ubuntu would work will with this wifi touch screen device? heres a link to the device if your wondering what im talking about.

Ubuntu :: How To Configure The Built In Tablet Driver

May 22, 2010

I installed Ubuntu today, and to my great pleasure i found that my Wacom Intuos 3 tablet worked as perfectly as when the windows driver is freshly installed. Unfortunately, i installed no driver, and therefore can find no way to configure my tablet.

What i need configured is the tablet proportion (i have two screens, so the mouse moves too fast in the X direction compared to the Y direction) and what the pen buttons do in different programs. The wrong button is currently right click.

Ubuntu :: Acpid Behaves Strangely On Tablet

Oct 19, 2010

I have followed this guide to setup automatic screen rotation on a fresh installation of Maverick on a Lenovo X200t. This involves creating the file:

Code:
$cat /etc/acpi/events/x200t-swivel-down
# /etc/acpi/events/x200t-swivel-down
# called when tablet head swivels down
event=ibm/hotkey HKEY 00000080 00005009
action=/etc/acpi/x200t-swivel-down.sh
and the script

Code:
$cat /etc/acpi/x200t-swivel-down.sh
#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/xrandr -o inverted
touch /home/nikos/Desktop/swivel-down
xsetwacom set "Serial Wacom Tablet stylus" Rotate half
xsetwacom set "Serial Wacom Tablet touch" Rotate half
xsetwacom set "Serial Wacom Tablet eraser" Rotate half
(similar for swivel-up)

What I find strange:
- calling the script with ./x200t-swivel-down.sh works (both with and without sudo).
- rotating the screen to tablet mode only executes the touch commands (which I entered for debugging)

Obviously, the acpi event is registered correctly and reacted upon. Just why are the xrandr and xsetwacom commands ignored?
