[Bug 252625] New: IBM X41: sax add serial mouse on ttyS0
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=252625 Summary: IBM X41: sax add serial mouse on ttyS0 Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Alpha 1plus Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: SaX2 AssignedTo: ms@novell.com ReportedBy: dkukawka@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Installed 10.2 and 10.3 and SaX enable always a serial mouse on ttyS0 on a IBM X41 TabletPC. The problem is: this is the device of the tablet device (set by the kernel) and not a mouse. If you config the Tablet to ttyS0 (which is the correct ttyS-device for the tablet) you can't use the tablet. Is it really needed to config a serial mouse by default in these days? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

As you can see the kernel create since 2.6.18 a own device in the sysfs for ttyS0 and the pnp-ID of the parent device is WACF004 (WACF00* are alway serial Wacom Tablets). Maybe it make sence to look for this. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

Serial devices which reports data after sending an escape sequence are reporting unique vendor/device ID's as well ? So can I use Mouse0 => VendorID : 0x0200 Mouse0 => DeviceID : 0x0003 to identify this device as a tablet or would that be a mistake Thanks -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
