Add support for CTL-4100K, CTL-4100WL and CTL-6100WL about wacom-gui HOT 12 CLOSED

Can you please run /usr/bin/libwacom-list-local-devices for the tablets and let me know what the output shows as? These are all wireless tablets which I haven't worked with as of yet so it would be very helpful to get them added.

from wacom-gui.

Strangely, when I run the command, I get no output at all.

This is the output I get from xsetwacom --list devices

Wacom Intuos BT M Pen stylus id: 12 type: STYLUS
Wacom Intuos BT M Pen eraser id: 13 type: ERASER
Wacom Intuos BT M Pen cursor id: 14 type: CURSOR
Wacom Intuos BT M Pad pad id: 15 type: PAD

Just to let you know, these tablets are not wireless only. They can be attached using USB as well.

from wacom-gui.

libwacom-list-local-devices is part of the libwacom package and effectively just pretty-prints the contents of the matching /usr/share/libwacom/ *.tablet files (which are also part of the libwacom package) of attached Wacom tablets

The version of libwacom that ships with RHEL/CentOS 7 (version 0.24) doesn't have .tablet files for these newer tablets

You could download the latest libwacom source (v0.31) from https://github.com/linuxwacom/libwacom/releases, extract the required .tablet file(s) and copy them to /usr/share/libwacom/ - then libwacom-list-local-devices should give the required output for these newer tablets

However, the libwacom source ships with another utility (list-devices - which is not installed by default) that gives a similar output to that of libwacom-list-local-devices - but for all .tablet files, not just the attached Wacom tablets - i.e. you don't need to have a tablet to get the output - but you will need the latest libwacom source to get the newer .tablet files and to build the list-devices utility

Thank you very much. I downloaded the files, copied them, and this is the output I get from libwacom-list-local-devices.

For some reason, the output seems to be printed twice. Since I haven't used libwacom-list-local-devices before, I am not sure if that is the normal behavior or not.

Thanks, I think that might be due to it having both a wired and a wireless mode. Can you provide me the output xsetwacom --list devices when it is wired vs wireless? I believe it should change the name from Wacom Intuos BT M to Wacom Intuos BT M (WL) but I have only one wireless device I can test with and want to confirm their naming scheme with at least one more.

from wacom-gui.

Unfortunately, my Linux PC doesn't have Bluetooth, so I can't use the tablet wirelessly. I will install Linux on my laptop and see if I can get it to recognize the tablet wirelessly.

from wacom-gui.

I have installed Ubuntu 18.04 and managed to pair and connect the tablet to my laptop's Bluetooth device, but it doesn't do anything and it is not recognized by xsetwacom. Not sure if that will help, but when I was connecting it to the Bluetooth, it was recognized as Intuos BT M which is the name I am getting from xsetwacom when connecting with the USB cable.

Hope that could be helpful. I will continue to try getting it to work on my laptop using Bluetooth and I will update you if I succeed.

from wacom-gui.

I'll go with the assumption for now. It'll take a little bit since I'm converting to use libwacom-list-local-devices so I need to update how it collects information about the tablet. I plan to include the *.tablet & layout files from libwacom-0.31 in the package but it'll check the local version first (if that makes sense). I'll look into the wireless support later if I can get what xsetwacom reports other models as in wired vs wireless mode.

from wacom-gui.

Thank you very much. Take all the time you need. This is not an urgent issue anyway since the tablet is working.

I think it is a good idea to include the *.tablet files, seeing that not all the distros will have the newest version of libwacom.

For some reason, the output seems to be printed twice. Since I haven't used
libwacom-list-local-devices before, I am not sure if that is the normal behavior or not.

libwacom-list-local-devices searches /dev/input/event* for Wacom devices - and as 'Pen' and 'Finger Touch' are reported as separate input devices, you get the output twice - e.g. with a 'Intuos Pro M', dmesg reports:

[4233463.031100] input: Wacom Intuos Pro M Pen as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.0/0000:02:00.0/usb3/3-2/3-2:1.0/input/input16
[4233463.044174] input: Wacom Intuos Pro M Finger as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.0/0000:02:00.0/usb3/3-2/3-2:1.1/input/input17

and libwacom-list-local-devices reports the 'Wacom Intuos Pro M' twice - so I guess it is expected behaviour ...

@amsaid1989 Please test the new release, it should resolve the uses if it's a valid device.

Closing this issue as it is related to the 0.2.x releases and I have no plans to further maintain it. If the new GUI should support the devices as they are reported correctly in libwacom.
