Unfortunately, it lacks probably the most important part of the package: the uwacom driver: # /usr/local/rc.d/wacom start Starting wacom. kldload: can't load /boot/modules/uwacom.ko: No such file or directory I brought up this same problem a few months ago on this list, but ultimately got no resolution, and set it aside for a while. It was not very critical at the time. I have more use for the laptop now, though, so I decided to try installing it from scratch again, and the exact same problem has arisen. There is simply no .ko file on the system for Wacom drivers at all. It occurred to me to try reinstalling the input-wacom package from ports, but unfortunately the port is identified as broken. Has anyone else gotten the uwacom.ko driver on their systems? If so, how? Are you using 8.1-RELEASE or something else? Is there a work-around for this problem? Google, thus far, has proven useless to me on this subject. --=20 Chad Perrin [ original content licensed OWL: http://owl.apotheon.org ] --huq684BweRXVnRxX Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.14 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAk08jlYACgkQ9mn/Pj01uKWs/ACeL8lvTJViwModXNahlgyCm3i5 VUwAoJh/4NG7si2JFom2YziZtCXP0IST =dwrW -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --huq684BweRXVnRxX--
