MGA3B1 on Lenovo X200T--- works fine.

[waferhead]

EDITED to provide complete instructions, again due to odd formatting error.

MGA3b1 installed and works beautifully on my "new" toy, a Lenovo X200 tablet (convertible)
This also works on MGA2...

The Wacom touchscreen (pen only) worked fine after a little configuration:
Required steps are simple, and the config files SHOULD be part of the wacom packages, but apparently aren't...
You have to install all the wacom drivers for X, kde etc, and create/paste the following 2 filesinto the right locations:

/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-wacom.conf

Code: Select all

Section "InputClass"
        Identifier "Wacom class"
        MatchProduct "Wacom|WACOM|Hanwang|PTK-540WL"
        MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
        Driver "wacom"
EndSection

Section "InputClass"
        Identifier "Wacom serial class"
        MatchProduct "Serial Wacom Tablet"
        Driver "wacom"
EndSection

Section "InputClass"
        Identifier "Wacom serial class identifiers"
        MatchProduct "WACf|FUJ02e5|FUJ02e7|FUJ02e9"
        Driver "wacom"
EndSection

# Waltop tablets
Section "InputClass"
        Identifier "Waltop class"
        MatchProduct "WALTOP"
        MatchIsTablet "on"
        MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
        Driver "wacom"
EndSection

# N-Trig Duosense Electromagnetic Digitizer
Section "InputClass"
        Identifier "Wacom N-Trig class"
        MatchProduct "HID 1b96:0001|N-Trig Pen"
        MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
        Driver "wacom"
        Option "Button2" "3"
EndSection



/etc/udev/rules.d/10-wacom.rules

Code: Select all

ACTION!="add|change", GOTO="wacom_end"
# Match all wacom tablets with a serial ID starting with WACf or FUJ*
ATTRS{id}=="WACf*" ENV{NAME}="Serial Wacom Tablet", ENV{ID_INPUT}="1", ENV{ID_INPUT_TABLET}="1"
ATTRS{id}=="FUJ*" ENV{NAME}="Serial Wacom Tablet", ENV{ID_INPUT}="1", ENV{ID_INPUT_TABLET}="1"
LABEL="wacom_end"




Config utility in KDE worked as expected.

Initial attempt on an older/slower USB stick (same iso image) failed to boot on this OR my desktop.
Seems to be more dependant on the stick speed than before, as I have used that paricular stick before w/no issues.

sleep/hibernate both work out of the box, only the fingerprint scanner seems to lack a driver, Authentec 2810 listed as unsupported under Linux so far.

No other issues so far, other than trying to find a handwriting recognition/note taking replacement for onenote, seems nixnote isn't packaged for Mageia.

Next I'll Google a bit to get the screen rotation buttons to work etc, will provide links or another mini-how to if i can't find one that just works.

Found a possible bug in grub when installing new kernels, it appears to generate the grub2 menu.cfg OK but never updates grubs menu.lst.

Can be configured manually in the control center of course, not sure if I'm brave enough to switch to grub2, as I despise it with a passion, and it works...
(bug already reported)

trackpoint was a gimme: The X200 ONLY has a trackpoint, no touchpad, so it gets the trackpoint only config.

(all these examples originally from various sources, arch wiki and thinkwiki, but trimmed down to only what is required and works for MGA)

/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/60-trackpoint.conf

Code: Select all

Section "InputClass"
    Identifier            "Wheel Emulation"
    MatchIsPointer        "on"
    MatchProduct          "TrackPoint"
    Option                "EmulateWheelButton" "2"
    Option                "EmulateWheel" "on"
EndSection

I'm playing with the screen rotation/button remapping based on http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Wacom_Ser ... _PC_Stylus , will post up final config when I'm fully happy with it.

My eventual goal os to have the pen/tablet funtions all working 100%, as well as having pen gestures for zoom/swipe etc all functional, so the tablet works as a tablet properly.

B2 works even better.
(same setup is still required as the touchpoint etc are not detected/configured unlike in Ubuntu etc.
OTOH a tiny bit of manual config is worth it so you don't have to run ubuntu )
