Re: [Qemu-devel] VNC terminal server?

Hi Anthony,

I noticed that the Windows driver does not work... it does send a bunch 
of commands to the tablet, mostly resets, but then claims that it can't 
discover it.  I downloaded the latest driver from wacom.com.  I did not 
try this with a Linux guest yet.... maybe that should be my next thing, 
and see what it will take to make it work without the SDL grab 
altogether (and sync up).  If that can work reliably, then adding the 
bits to the protocol that Windows expects would be worth the work.

I'm thinking that this device would be a good complementary option to an 
absolute USB HID device.  Having both in the long run won't hurt, 
especially if certain OS's prefer serial over USB absolute pointers, and 
vice versa.
