    Hello:

    Anyone using a Wacom tablet with a Peg?
    while mine is almost ready for delivery , I think it would be wise to find any software drivers for a Wacom tablet for a Peg?

    Graphire3, Intuos2 and PenPartner all work fine on MorphOS using Poseidon. Linux handles them fine too. I own a Graphire and a PenPartner.

    I hope you went for USB and not the cheaper serial version..

    well, I have an Intuos 2, USB, here but I couldnt get it work.

    It just does not respond (that means no pressure, and one cant draw correctely) in TVPaint, which is really the main program I would use it in.

    Any suggestions to get it work?

    Regards

    Im new to the Pegasos , so Im not sure what Poseidon is ? Where can I find information on the Poseidon? The Morphos website is not open.

    This information is critical to the purchase of the PegasosII I am now ordering...

    what does the USB stack have to do with a Wacom driver for a Pegasos?

    I have a USB Wacom graphire3 grafic tablet.

    Just plug into one free usb port and its working. As USB is a standard every device needs to follow it (more or less). You prolly will not have all the highly advanced features today Wacoms driver for other OSes offer, but it works like it should. Everything is handled by the USB STack/ driver, aka Poseidon. :-)


    No need for some special drivers like for the old serial tablets.


    regards,
    tokai

    tokai..
    that's the best driver I ever have heard of...So the Poseidon somehow reads the graphic tablet(identifies it)and the system responds to the instructions?

    ...And in the case of a internet stack or tcp/ip the Posiedon does the same?

    Sort of a pre-programed input device?
    ....sorry for the crude anology.

    Well, I dont know what I do wrong here but really the Wacom Intuos2 USB graphic tablet does not work at all!

    It is correctely recognized by Poseidon, I have the latest version installed, but there is no response at all, neither on Ambient, fxPaint2, TVPaint, ArtEffect4...

    Is there something I have to enable somewhere???

    Thanks for your help.

    Regards

It identifies a standard input device (HID class AFAIR). that's it. This class has a whole bunch of defined things (x-axis, y-axis, z-axis, buttons 1 - n, and so on) the tablet just tells the usb stack on which of this defined things it wants to have his stuff mapped. Thats it. Same for mices or joypads if they follow the USB standard.


Dunno what you mean with tcp/ip exactly. :-)


But yes, poseidon 'influences' input.device and/or lowlevel.library.
