Hello people,

I have a bit of a problem to get my Wacom Graphire3 (USB) to work with 
FreeBSD. At first I thought I was doing something wrong, but it seems that 
FreeBSD doesnt understand it. I know it works with OpenBSD and NetBSD, and 
that it probably is due to uhid.c
http://fxr.watson.org/fxr/source/dev/usb/uhid.c?v=RELENG51
I was really surprised that it works on the two other BSDs, if I had known 
that before I probably would've installed one of them. But now my FreeBSD 
is pretty much set up(about everything else works now), so I give it 
another try.

It only works since about 1-2 weeks on NetBSD, I found the story behind 
that, and wrote the guy responsible for that about it. He gave me some 
hints, you can find what he wrote, and what I tried before in (and it the 
parent message)
Message-ID: <slrnbvrd54.9hq.nospam@hennep.adsl.utwente.nl>
or on google:

What I want to know is, is it possible to just replace the uhid.c from 
FreeBSD by the one from Net- or OpenBSD? I dont think so, but if so, thats 
an easy try.

Otherwise I'm looking for someone that knows C, and wants to look at 
uhid.c. I obviously dont know C, nor any other programming language.
If its probably a better idea to install OpenBSD, I'd like to hear that too ;-)
