I understand that I'm going to need a driver, and I have tentatively picked out a name, uta, for Usb Tablet Absolute (it doesn't digitize relatively, it does it using absolute numbers). OK, I can see this, but dies this mean that uta has to be able to feed into the moused daemon? Also, in the deal of X11, I need to be able to understand if it can (with the correct interface, and what's that is a fine question) be placed into my xorg.conf right where I now stick my /dev/psm0, or does it need some sort of extra input thingy (see /usr/local/lib/xorg/modules/input) to interface it? I think maybe it might fall under the XInput description. Anyhow, what I'm looking for is some advice for where I go once I write enough of the uta to where it works ok with moused, what needs to come next. Lastly, realize my final goal is to get this thing working with gimp. Everything else is extra and sacrificeable. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4 (FreeBSD) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHtOCaz62J6PPcoOkRArLBAJ4u1/EjE7SCO3nzfa7msgu2cEs5VwCePqOS lzGM2gbM+qVlY5o/MxUkoLc= =cHuX -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
