Kaihsu Tai, the fdi file doesn't need to exist in /etc/hal/fdi/policy/, there's already one in /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/20thirdparty/ installed by the package xserver-xorg-input-wacom and it should already be enough for the stylus (unless you're affected by a bug in the 0.8.1.4 wacom drivers, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wacom Option A).
The /etc/hal/fdi/policy/ is the place to copy it if you want to edit your stylus options (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wacom.fdi ). However, you only get stylus. If you want to get the eraser, cursor, pad... you need to edit your xorg.conf as in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wacom option B) and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WacomTroubleshooting ). Come to the forum if you have questions. However, part of your bug report is still true - there need to be a solution for eraser/cursor/etc, but that's not possible at the moment (adding the lines in the .fdi file won't work). Hopefully it can be solved for Jaunty (see the discussion there : https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-x/2008-November/000243.html and there : https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel- discuss/2008-November/006205.html ). I had a look at your xorg.conf, and it's not a "default" one since apparently you upgraded. Remove the # (only one) at the beginning of the lines concerning wacom sections (stylus, eraser, cursor) and the ones concerning the same devices in "ServerLayout". But make sure you make sure you make a copy of your xorg.conf and can either copy it under a command line (CTRL-ALT-F1) or boot on a live CD, mount the / partition and copy it from there. -- /etc/hal/fdi/policy/*wacom.fdi needs to exist and the ‘eraser’ and ‘cursor’ need to be enabled by default in addition to ‘stylus’ https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/293564 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
