Wacom tablet (简体中文)
本指南最初是为基于 USB 的 Wacom 数位板撰写的，所以文中大部分内容都集中于它。通常推荐依赖于 Xorg 的自动检测功能更或者使用动态的设置。 然而，对于一些内嵌的数位板，当自动检测功能不起作用时，可以考虑使用静态的 Xorg 设置。 一份静态的 Xorg 设置通常会导致，当你的 Wacom 数位板连接到不同的 USB 端口后，甚至当你在同一端口上重新拔插后，设备无法被识别。因此，此方法被认定是过时的。
安装
-
检查内核是否已经识别你的数位板
对于 USB 数位板, 连接电脑并检查lsusb、dmesg | grep -i wacom或者/proc/bus/input/devices的输出。
当你的数位板无法被识别，而能够识别它的驱动比内核中的驱动更新时，请尝试安装input-wacom-dkmsAUR。 -
安装 Wacom 驱动
请安装软件包 xf86-input-wacom ，如果无法使用，请尝试不稳定的 xf86-input-wacom-gitAUR[损坏的链接：package not found] 包。
自动设置
新版本的 X 应当可以自动地检测并配置你的设备。在进一步之前，请重启 X 使新的 udev 规则生效。要测试你的设备是否已经被完整的识别（即笔和橡皮（如果有的话）都正常工作），请执行如下的命令
$ xsetwacom --list devices
该命令应当检测出所有设备并给出类型，例如
Wacom Bamboo 2FG 4x5 Pen stylus id: 8 type: STYLUS Wacom Bamboo 2FG 4x5 Pen eraser id: 9 type: ERASER Wacom Bamboo 2FG 4x5 Finger touch id: 13 type: TOUCH Wacom Bamboo 2FG 4x5 Finger pad id: 14 type: PAD
你也可以通过打开 gimp 或者 xournalAUR 测试设备，并且检查扩展输入设备部分（extended input devices section），或者任何数位板相关的配置是否被你选择的软件支持。
为了使其工作，你不需要 xorg.conf 文件，所有的配置更改都在 /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ 文件夹中。
如果一切正常的话，你可以跳过手动设置章节继续阅读配置部分，了解如何更进一步地自定义你的数位板。
随着 Xorg 1.8 的到来，会弃用HAL支持转而使用udev。因为他们的 udev 规则还不存在，致使部分型号的平板电脑无法透过udev正常执行自动检测，因此你可能需要自己编写。
xf86-input-wacom驱动设计成与 Xorg 服务器配合工作，因此当你在 Wayland 上运行你的桌面环境的时候可能会出问题（Gnome 的默认窗口系统）。
手动设置
手动配置需要保存在 /etc/X11/xorg.conf 中，或者作为单独的文件保存在 /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ 目录下。
访问 Wacom 数位板需要通过访问 /dev/input/ 中的一个输入事件接口，该接口由内核驱动提供。
接口的编号 event?? 可能会随着设备从 USB 端口的拔插而改变，特别是从不同的端口拔插。
因此，明智的做法是不要使用具体的 event?? 接口（静态配置）来确定设备，而是让 udev 动态创建一个符号链接到正确的 event 文件（动态配置）。
使用 udev
xorg.conf配置 部分继续。假设 udev 已经安装，你只需要简单地从 AUR 安装 wacom-udevAUR[损坏的链接：package not found] 。
USB设备
在你（重新）插入你的 USB 数位板之后（或者至少是重启之后），/dev/input 下应当会出现一些关联到你的数位板设备的符号链接。
$ ls /dev/input/wacom* /dev/input/wacom /dev/input/wacom-stylus /dev/input/wacom-touch
如果没有，你的设备可能并没有包含在 wacom-dev 自带的 udev 配置中（位于 /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/10-wacom.rules）。在修改这个文件之前最好复制一份（例如，复制为 10-my-wacom.rules），不然它可能会在包升级的时候被覆盖（回滚）。
要将你的设备加入到文件中，请复制文件里的某一行并且更改其中的 idVendor，idProduct 和 SYMLINK 的值为你的设备的对应值。
其中两个 id 可以通过以下命令确认：
$ lsusb | grep -i wacom Bus 002 Device 007: ID 056a:0062 Wacom Co., Ltd
在这个例子中 idVendor 的值为 056a，idProduct 的值为 0062。 如果你的设备有触摸功能（例如 Bamboo Pen&Touch），则可能需要为触摸输入接口添加一行配置。 更多详情请参考 linuxwacom 的 wiki Fixed device files with udev。
保存文件并使用命令 udevadm control --reload-rules 重新加载 udev 的配置文件。
再次检查 /dev/input，确保符号链接 wacom 已出现。
注意，你可能需要重新拔插设备才能看到设备。
/dev/input/wacom 将会在 Xorg 配置中进一步使用，对于触摸设备来说，还有 /dev/input/wacom_touch。
串行设备
软件包 wacom-udevAUR[损坏的链接：package not found] 也应当包括了对串行设备的支持。串行设备的用户也许会对 linuxconsole 软件包中的 inputattach 工具感兴趣。inputattach 命令允许你将串行设备绑定到 /dev/input 设备树上，例如：
# inputattach --w8001 /dev/ttyS0
关于可用选项的帮助，请参见 man inputattach。
对于 USB 设备，最终你应得到一个 /dev/input/wacom 文件，然后继续进行 Xorg 配置。
静态设置
If you insist in using a static setup just refer to your tablet in the Xorg configuration in the next section using the correct /dev/input/event?? files as one can find out by looking into /proc/bus/input/devices.
Xorg配置
In either case, dynamic or static setup you got now one or two files in /dev/input/ which refer to the correct input event devices of your tablet. All that is left to do is add the relevant information to /etc/X11/xorg.conf, or a dedicated file under /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/.
The exact configuration depends on your tablets features of course. xsetwacom --list devices might give helpful information on what InputDevice sections are needed for your tablet.
An example configuration for a Volito2 might look like this
Section "InputDevice"
Driver "wacom"
Identifier "stylus"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom" # or the corresponding event?? for a static setup
Option "Type" "stylus"
Option "USB" "on" # USB ONLY
Option "Mode" "Relative" # other option: "Absolute"
Option "Vendor" "WACOM"
Option "tilt" "on" # add this if your tablet supports tilt
Option "Threshold" "5" # the official linuxwacom howto advises this line
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Driver "wacom"
Identifier "eraser"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom" # or the corresponding event?? for a static setup
Option "Type" "eraser"
Option "USB" "on" # USB ONLY
Option "Mode" "Relative" # other option: "Absolute"
Option "Vendor" "WACOM"
Option "tilt" "on" # add this if your tablet supports tilt
Option "Threshold" "5" # the official linuxwacom howto advises this line
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Driver "wacom"
Identifier "cursor"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom" # or the corresponding event?? for a static setup
Option "Type" "cursor"
Option "USB" "on" # USB ONLY
Option "Mode" "Relative" # other option: "Absolute"
Option "Vendor" "WACOM"
EndSection
Make sure that you also change the path ("Device") to your mouse, as it will be /dev/input/mouse_udev now.
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Mouse1"
Driver "mouse"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mouse_udev"
Option "SendCoreEvents" "true"
Option "Protocol" "IMPS/2"
Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
Option "Buttons" "5"
EndSection
Add this to the ServerLayout section
InputDevice "cursor" "SendCoreEvents" InputDevice "stylus" "SendCoreEvents" InputDevice "eraser" "SendCoreEvents"
And finally make sure to update the identifier of your mouse in the ServerLayout section – as mine went from
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
to
InputDevice "Mouse1" "CorePointer"
配置
常用概念
The configuration can be done in two ways temporary using the xsetwacom tool, which is included in xf86-input-wacom or permanent in xorg.conf or better in a extra file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d.
The possible options are identical so it is recommended to first use xsetwacom for testing and later add the final config to the Xorg configuration files.
临时配置
For the beginning it is a good idea to inspect the default configuration and all possible options using the following commands.
$ xsetwacom --list devices # list the available devices for the get/set commands Wacom Bamboo 16FG 4x5 Finger touch id: 12 type: TOUCH Wacom Bamboo 16FG 4x5 Finger pad id: 13 type: PAD Wacom Bamboo 16FG 4x5 Pen stylus id: 17 type: STYLUS Wacom Bamboo 16FG 4x5 Pen eraser id: 18 type: ERASER $ xsetwacom --get "Wacom Bamboo 16FG 4x5" all # using the device name $ xsetwacom --get 17 all # or equivalently use the device id $ xsetwacom --list parameters # to get an explanation of the Options $ man wacom # get even more details
Caution, do not use the device id when writing shell scripts to set some options as the ids might change after an hotplug.
Options can be changed with the --set flag. Some useful examples are
$ xsetwacom --set "Wacom Bamboo 16FG 4x5 Finger touch" ScrollDistance 50 # change scrolling speed $ xsetwacom --set "Wacom Bamboo 16FG 4x5 Finger touch" Gesture off # disable multitouch gestures $ xsetwacom --set "Wacom Bamboo 16FG 4x5 Finger touch" Touch off # disable touch
持久化配置
To make a permanent configuration the preferred way for Xorg>1.8 is to create a new file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d
e.g. 52-wacom-options.conf with the following content.
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/52-wacom-options.conf
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Wacom Bamboo stylus options"
MatchDriver "wacom"
MatchProduct "Pen"
# Apply custom Options to this device below.
Option "Rotate" "none"
Option "RawSample" "20"
Option "PressCurve" "0,10,90,100"
EndSection
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Wacom Bamboo eraser options"
MatchDriver "wacom"
MatchProduct "eraser"
# Apply custom Options to this device below.
Option "Rotate" "none"
Option "RawSample" "20"
Option "PressCurve" "5,0,100,95"
EndSection
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Wacom Bamboo touch options"
MatchDriver "wacom"
MatchProduct "Finger"
# Apply custom Options to this device below.
Option "Rotate" "none"
Option "ScrollDistance" "18"
Option "TapTime" "220"
EndSection
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Wacom Bamboo pad options"
MatchDriver "wacom"
MatchProduct "pad"
# Apply custom Options to this device below.
Option "Rotate" "none"
# Setting up buttons
Option "Button1" "1"
Option "Button2" "2"
Option "Button3" "3"
Option "Button4" "0"
EndSection
The identifiers can be set arbitrarily. The option names are (except for the buttons) identical to the ones listed by xsetwacom --list parameters and especially also in wacom(4). As noted in #重映射按钮 the button ids seem to be different than the ones for xsetwacom.
更改方向
If you want to use your tablet in a different orientation you have to tell this to the driver, else the movements do not cause the expected results. This is done by setting the Rotate option for all devices. Possible orientations are none,cw,ccw and half. A quick way is e.g.
$ for i in 12 13 17 18; do xsetwacom --set $i Rotate half; done # remember the ids might change when hotplugging
or use the following script like this ./wacomrot.sh half
wacomrot.sh
#!/bin/bash device="Wacom Bamboo 16FG 4x5" stylus="$device Pen stylus" eraser="$device Pen eraser" touch="$device Finger touch" pad="$device Finger pad" xsetwacom --set "$stylus" Rotate $1 xsetwacom --set "$eraser" Rotate $1 xsetwacom --set "$touch" Rotate $1 xsetwacom --set "$pad" Rotate $1
重映射按钮
It is possible to remap the buttons with hotkeys.
- Check Simple web-based GUI for xsetwacom, supports bamboo small but more models may come.
获取按钮ID
Sometimes it needs some trial&error to find the correct button IDs. For me they even differ for xsetwacom and the xorg.conf configuration. Very helpful tools are xev or xbindkeys -mk. An easy way to proceed is to temporarily assign keystrokes to your tablets buttons like this:
$ xsetwacom --set "Wacom Bamboo 16FG 4x5 Finger pad" Button 1 'key a' $ xsetwacom --set "Wacom Bamboo 16FG 4x5 Finger pad" Button 2 'key b' $ xsetwacom --set "Wacom Bamboo 16FG 4x5 Finger pad" Button 3 'key c' $ # and so on
Then fire up xev from a terminal window, place your mouse cursor above the window and hit the buttons and write down the IDs.
$ xev | grep KeyPress -A 5
语法
The syntax of xsetwacom is flexible but not very well documented. The general mapping syntax (extracted from the source code) for xsetwacom 0.17.0 is the following.
KEYWORD [ARGS...] [KEYWORD [ARGS...] ...]
KEYWORD + ARGS:
key [+,-]KEY [[+,-]KEY ...] where +:key down, -:key up, no prefix:down and up
button BUTTON [BUTTON ...] (1=left,2=middle,3=right mouse button, 4/5 scroll mouse wheel)
modetoggle toggle absolute/relative tablet mode
displaytoggle toggle cursor movement among all displays which include individual screens
plus the whole desktop for the selected tool if it is not a pad.
When the tool is a pad, the function applies to all tools that are asssociated
with the tablet
BUTTON: button ID as integer number
KEY: MODIFIER, SPECIALKEY or ASCIIKEY
MODIFIER: (each can be prefix with an l or an r for the left/right modifier (no prefix = left)
ctrl=ctl=control, meta, alt, shift, super, hyper
SPECIALKEY: f1-f35, esc=Esc, up,down,left,right, backspace=Backspace, tab, PgUp,PgDn
ASCIIKEY: (usual characters the key produces, e.g. a,b,c,1,2,3 etc.)
示例
$ xsetwacom --set "Wacom Bamboo 16FG 4x5 Finger pad" Button 1 3 # right mouse button $ xsetwacom --set "Wacom Bamboo 16FG 4x5 Finger pad" Button 1 "key +ctrl z -ctrl" $ xsetwacom --get "Wacom Bamboo 16FG 4x5 Finger pad" Button 1 key +Control_L +z -z -Control_L $ xsetwacom --set "Wacom Bamboo 16FG 4x5 Finger pad" Button 1 "key +shift button 1 key -shift"
even little macros are possible
$ xsetwacom --set "Wacom Bamboo 16FG 4x5 Finger pad" Button 1 "key +shift h -shift e l l o"
$ xsetwacom --set "Wacom Bamboo 16FG 4x5 Finger pad" Button 1 "key a b c" # press button 1 -> abc $ xsetwacom --set "Wacom Bamboo 16FG 4x5 Finger pad" Button 1 "key d" # press button 1 -> dbc WRONG!
A simple workaround is to reset the mapping by mapping to "":
$ xsetwacom --set "Wacom Bamboo 16FG 4x5 Finger pad" Button 1 "" # to reset the mapping $ xsetwacom --set "Wacom Bamboo 16FG 4x5 Finger pad" Button 1 "key d" # press button 1 -> d
xsetwacom commands from a udev rule, you might find that it will not work, as the wacom input devices will not be ready at the time. A workaround is to add sleep 1 at the beginning of your script.执行自定义命令
Mapping custom commands to the buttons is a little bit tricky but actually very simple. First, install xbindkeys.
To get well defined button codes add the following to your permanent configuration file, e.g. /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/52-wacom-options.conf
in the InputClass section of your pad device. Map the tablets buttons to some unused button ids.
# Setting up buttons (preferably choose the correct button order, so the topmost key is mapped to 10 and so on) Option "Button1" "10" Option "Button2" "11" Option "Button3" "12" Option "Button4" "13"
Then restart your Xorg server and verify the buttons using xev or xbindkeys -mk.
Now set up your xbindkeys configuration, if you do not already have one you might want to create a default configuration
$ xbindkeys --defaults > ~/.xbindkeysrc
Then add your custom key mapping to ~/.xbindkeysrc, for example
"firefox"
m:0x10 + b:10 (mouse)
"xterm"
m:0x10 + b:11 (mouse)
"xdotool key ctrl-z"
m:0x10 + b:12 (mouse)
"send-notify Test "No need for escaping the quotes""
m:0x10 + b:13 (mouse)
LEDs
See the sysfs-driver-wacom documentation. To make changes without requiring root permissions you will likely want to create a udev rule like so:
/etc/udev/rules.d/99-wacom.rules
# Give the users group permissions to set Wacom device LEDs. ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="hid", DRIVERS=="wacom", RUN+="/usr/bin/sh -c 'chown :users /sys/%p/wacom_led/*'"
Setting the Intuos OLEDs can be done using i4oledAUR from the AUR.
TwinView设置
If you are going to use two Monitors the aspect ratio while using the Tablet might feel unnatural. In order to fix this you need to add
Option "TwinView" "horizontal"
To all of your Wacom-InputDevice entries in the xorg.conf file.
You may read more about that HERE
临时TwinView设置
For temporary mapping of a Wacom device to a single display while preserving the aspect ratio, this script may be used. This will letter-box the surface area of the device as required to ensure the input is not stretched on the display. This script may be executed in your .xinitrc file for it to automatically run.
Xrandr设置
xrandr sets two monitors as one big screen, mapping the tablet to the whole virtual screen and deforming aspect ratio. For a solution see this thread: archlinux forum.
If you just want to map the tablet to one of your screens, first find out what the screens are called
$ xrandr Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 3840 x 1080, maximum 16384 x 16384 HDMI-0 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) DVI-0 connected 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 477mm x 268mm 1920x1080 60.0*+ 1680x1050 60.0 ... VGA-0 connected 1920x1080+1920+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 477mm x 268mm 1920x1080 60.0*+ 1680x1050 60.0 ...
Then you need to know what is the ID of your tablet.
$ xsetwacom --list devices WALTOP International Corp. Slim Tablet stylus id: 12 type: STYLUS
In my case I want to map the tablet (ID: 12) to the screen on the right, which is VGA-0. I can do that with this command
$ xsetwacom --set 12 MapToOutput "VGA-0"
This should immediately work, no root necessary.
If xsetwacom replies with "Unable to find an output ..." an X11 geometry string of the form WIDTHxHEIGHT+X+Y can be specified instead of the screen identifier. In this example
$ xsetwacom --set 12 MapToOutput "1920x1080+1920+0"
should also map the tablet to the screen on the right.
Alternatively, you can use this bash script to quickly map the tablet to one of your screens (or the entire desktop) and fix the aspect ratio.
In case xsetwacom does not work, you can try xinput.
First, you need to find your tablets ID.
$ xinput list
In my case, the output is:
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Wacom Intuos PT S 2 Finger id=11 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Wacom Intuos PT S 2 Pad id=12 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ USB Keyboard id=14 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ SynPS/2 Synaptics TouchPad id=16 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ TPPS/2 IBM TrackPoint id=17 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ SteelSeries Kinzu V2 Gaming Mouse id=9 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Wacom Intuos PT S 2 Pen Pen (0x6281780c) id=20 [slave pointer (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard id=3 [master keyboard (2)]
↳ Virtual core XTEST keyboard id=5 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Power Button id=6 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Video Bus id=7 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Sleep Button id=8 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ Wacom Intuos PT S 2 Pen id=10 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ USB Keyboard id=13 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ AT Translated Set 2 keyboard id=15 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ ThinkPad Extra Buttons id=18 [slave keyboard (3)]
↳ USB Keyboard id=19 [slave keyboard (3)]
This mean, my tablets ID is 20. Now we map it with VGA-0 screen:
$ xinput map-to-output 20 VGA-0
压力曲线
Use Wacom Pressure Demo to find P1=red (eg. 50,0), P2=purple (eg. 100,80) and Threshold=green (eg. 27) of your desired curve. The x-axis is the input pressure you apply to the pen; the y-axis is the output pressure the application is given. (example curve)
You can immediately test your desired values for your device (eg. "Wacom Intuos4 6x9 stylus") with
xsetwacom --set "Wacom Intuos4 6x9 stylus" PressureCurve "50" "0" "100" "80" xsetwacom --set "Wacom Intuos4 6x9 stylus" Threshold "27"
Later you can apply them in /etc/X11/xorg.conf as shown below or you use the above shell commands in any startup script
/etc/X11/xorg.conf
Option "PressCurve" "50,0,100,80" # Custom preference Option "Threshold" "27" # sensitivity to do a "click"
力量比例
For standard (16:9) widescreen monitors with Wacom tablets it is a typical problem that your strokes are slightly more horizontally oriented than they physically were (so for example a perfectly drawn circle with the pen will turn into a horizontal ellipse in the computer) because the tablet drawing surface proportions are larger on the vertical axis by default (16:10) than your monitors aspect ratio and this inconsistency will subtly distort your strokes. It is possible to force the proportions of the drawing surface to match the aspect ratio of your monitor to solve this problem by cutting off the bottom of the drawing surface to accommodate for the differences in vertical resolution with the below options. This is an alternative to the "Force Proportions" option in the Windows driver settings. It is generally recommended to do this to ensure maximum accuracy of your tablet input.
To get the tablets default values run the following command (where "device name or ID" would be for your stylus):
xsetwacom --get "device name or ID" Area
After this you can figure out your tablets resolution by dividing the values with the ratio 11.25 (so 21600/11.25=1920 and 13500/11.25=1200), so to convert this to 1920x1080 (16:9) resolution, do 1080*11.25=12150 then to set the proportions with xsetwacom:
xsetwacom --set "device name or ID" Area 0 0 21600 12150
Here is how to do the same in the xorg configuration file:
Option "BottomX" "21600" Option "BottomY" "12150"
(An alternative formula would would be aspect ratio multiplied by 1350. So 16:9 is 16*1350=21600 and 9*1350=12150)
使用kcm-wacomtablet
The KDE configuration module kcm-wacomtablet (or if you are on Plasma 5, kcm-wacomtablet-frameworks-gitAUR[损坏的链接：package not found]) supports easy configuration of the tablet through a graphical user interface, allowing for different profiles and proper hotplugging support. It will auto-detect the type of your tablet, and load your configuration profile automatically when the tablet is plugged in.
针对特定应用程序的配置
Blender
To enable pad buttons and extra pen buttons in blender, you can create a xsetwacom wrapper to temporarily remap buttons for your blender session.
GIMP
To enabled proper usage, and pressure sensitive painting in GIMP, just go to Edit → Input Devices. Now for each of your eraser, stylus, and cursor devices, set the mode to Screen, and remember to save.
- Please take note that if present, the pad device should be kept disabled as I do not think GIMP supports such things. Alternatively, to use such features of your tablet you should map them to keyboard commands with a program such as Wacom ExpressKeys.
- You should also take note that the tool selected for the stylus is independent to that of the eraser. This can actually be quite handy, as you can have the eraser set to be used as any tool you like.
For more information checkout the Setting up GIMP section of GIMP Talk - Community - Install Guide: Getting Wacom Drawing Tablets To Work In Gimp.
If the above was not enough, you may want to try setting up the tablets stylus (and eraser) as a second mouse pointer (separating it from your mouse) by using the xinput create-master and xinput reattach commands. It can help when GIMP does not start painting even if the stylus touches the tablet.
Inkscape
As in GIMP, to do the same simply got to Edit → Input Devices.... Now for each of your eraser, stylus, and cursor devices, set the mode to Screen, and remember to save.
Krita
If your tablet does not draw in Krita (clicks/pressure are not registered) but works in the brush selection dialog which has a small test area, try putting Krita in full-screen or canvas-only mode.
Krita only requires that Qt is able to use your tablet to function properly. If your tablet is not working in Krita, then make sure to check it is working in Qt first. The effect of tablet pressure can then be tweaked in the painttop configuration, for example by selecting opacity, then selecting pressure from the drop down and adjusting the curve to your preference.
VirtualBox
First, make sure that your tablet works well under Arch. Then, download and install the last driver from Wacom website on the guest OS. Shutdown the virtual machine, go to Settings > USB. Select Add Filter From Device and select your tablet (e.g. WACOM CTE-440-U V4.0-3 [0403]). Select Edit Filter, and change the last item Remote to Any.
Web Browser Plugin
A plugin that imitates the official Wacom web plugin can be found on the AUR as wacomwebpluginAUR[损坏的链接：package not found]. It has been tested successfully using Chromium and Firefox.
With this plugin it is possible to make use of online tools such as deviantART's Muro. This plugin is in early stages so as always, your mileage may vary.
故障排除
对于新的数位板，其驱动可能还没有进入内核，需要额外的操作。一个著名的例子是新的 Intuos 数位板(Draw/Comic/Photo)。
未知的设备类型
如果你的数位板无法被 xsetwacom 识别，并且 dmesg 抱怨它是一个未知类型的设备，那么你需要安装一个打过补丁的 input-wacom。
请从 SourceForge 下载 for-4.4 分支并安装。 之后运行以下命令后你的设备应当可以被识别了：
# rmmod wacom # insmod /lib/modules/YOUR_KERNEL/extra/wacom.ko.gz
系统冻结
如果在激活数位板的触控笔时，系统被冻结，那么你需要为你的内核打补丁：LKML。
