wizardpen-0.7.0-alpha2 DEB package now available

First of all, all thanks to Giorgo Enrico who made the package! I have personally tested it and find it to be working, so I suppose it'd be of great help to those who aren't too comfortable in compiling :).

Anyway, here's the place to download the packages:
Driver: http://www.mediafire.com/file/nyzyynygiyy/wizardpen_0.7.0-alpha2_i386.deb
Calibrator tool: COMING SOON!

I'm not particular sure about whether it does support 8.10 or not, so if somebody had tested it, please let me know ;)

I am glad that the package functions. Calibrate starts correctly from the bin but fails to work. Ancol touch of a screen does not detect the coordinates x, y. Mystery ...

running 9.04

the only driver set that I could get to download was the .deb file. installed that package.

in firefox the pen acts like a back button and the mouse courser never moves.

I do not see a (II) LoadModule: "wizardpen" anywhere in the xorg.0.log

thank you in advance.

Hey there, I made a deb with correct fdi information for all of the tablets that use wizardpen drivers, but I need testers.

I'm having problems getting the pen to work on Ubuntu 9.04. The mouse works fine, but the pen does not respond...

I installed the debian package wizardpen_0.7.0-alpha2_i386 on Ubuntu 9.04 but once the package is installed nothing happens. The pen still doesn't work at all. Do I have to type a command in at the terminal to "activate" the driver somehow?

Hello.

I installed the driver using the deb package but moving the pen doesn't move the cursor and the buttons on it don't do what they should.

Also, I was following the steps to calibrate but I don't know where to find wizardpen-calibrate.

I'm following this instruction.

My tools:
OS: gNewSense 2.2 (Based on Ubuntu 8.04)
Tablet: Genius MousePen 8x6

Anderson,
Currently we need an active maintainer for the driver to make that happen :)
