Can't configure my wacom intuos4 tablet on Karmic Koala

[Oscar D. Franco]

I have a intuos4 small tablet, which ubuntu 9.04 didn't recognize unless I compile the driver.

Karmic Koala recognized the tablet as a mouse, but most applications don't recognize it as a tablet, the configuration utility, wacom tools, doesn't find any wacom tablet, nor does it wacom utility, and I cant make use of the pression sensitivity on blender and have some clic issues, altough in gimp works fine, with some cursor problems.

Thank you

Hi scardario,

Please attach the output of `lspci -vvnn` and `dmesg`, and attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log (and maybe Xorg.0.log.old) file from after reproducing this issue. If you're using a custom /etc/X11/xorg.conf please attach that as well.

The problem seems to be in HAL; replacing the contents of the existing 10-linuxwacom.fdi with the following solves the problem, stylus, eraser, pad and cursor becomes configurable with wacomcpl.
