I have recently installed Debian Jessie on my computer, and purchased a new Wacom Intuos tablet. I was expecting to be able to simply plug it in and use it, as I have with Wacom devices on Debian in the past, however this was not the case.
GNOME's Wacom tablet configuration tool is entirely unable to detect the tablet, as is
xsetwacom --list devices
. /dev/wacom
does not exist.
I have tried to install xf86-input-wacom
, as per the debian wiki , however apt reports that the package does not exist. Additionally, wacom-tools
is nowhere to be found, despite the WacomTablets guide suggesting that it might help in making Wacom tablets work.
