Hi All,
I just installed Wacom (Bamboo Tablet) CTH-470 on my opensuse 11.4 Gnome3 desktop, using script that I found here: SDB:Wacom tablet installer - openSUSE
Whole installation process was finished without any errors, I can see kernel module:
lsmod | grep -i wacom
wacom 33165 0
Also modprobe wacom works fine, this is messages log:
Oct 6 09:34:44 l-linux kernel: [57318.564876] usbcore: registered new interface driver wacom
Oct 6 09:34:44 l-linux kernel: [57318.564879] wacom: v1.52-pc-0.3:USB Wacom tablet driver
but when I connect my tablet, it does not work… this is messages log:

Try plugging it in before powering the system up - it may still be (I
know it used to be as an Intuos4 owner myself) that hotplug is not
supported by the driver.

No, it did not help ;(
What about the message in the log: “was not an MTP device”? Is it an error or just information?
Can it be the problem with Xorg Server… I am running 1.9.3

Honestly I’m not sure. I see a lot of references to that message for a
variety of devices, so I don’t think it’s likely to be an issue.

I’m running 1.9.3 here as well. If you run xsetwacom (part of the xorg-
x11-driver-input package), does that seem to work?

Just to let you know, I just ran across a thread in the wacom development
mailing list that indicated that support for this particular tablet is
currently in active development. They are looking for testers - the
mailing list can be accessed as the newsgroup gmane.linux.drivers.wacom
over at news.gmane.org (there is a web interface as well). The thread in
question is entitled “New Bamboo Tablet Testers Needed” - you’ll see I
posted in it about this thread (though I didn’t reference the thread
itself).

Just as a follow-up, it looks like the author is submitting the updated
driver to the Linux kernel this week and is looking for testers.
You can find his message (and a .tgz with the newer driver code in it) at:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.wacom/6062
He’s provided some instructions on how to build and install to test in
the message as well.
