I recently bought Wacom Intuos BT M (CTL-6100WL). It is supposed to come with all 3 software apps bundled (Aftershot 3, Painter Essentials 7 and Clip Studio Pro). Only the Clip Studio came with a serial number after 'redeeming' the 'offers' from Wacom website after pen tablet registrations. Wacom Ink Technologies. For help finding your model number and serial number, click here. Model number. Tablet serial number. Order number. Message. Reason for. Wacom Serial Tablet PC Stylus. This is a stylus made for tablet PCs by Wacom. Chipset: Wacom; Serial: irq 5 port 0x0200; First steps. Get the linux wacom driver and install it on your system. The pen uses serial and appears on some /dev/ttySnn device where nn is a number. An easy way to find it is to map /dev/ttyS0 to the pen's port and irq. The values can be found under the windows driver properties. Jul 15, 2013 The information is located on the label on the bottom of the tablet or the back of the interactive pen display product. The model number is above the bar code and the serial number.
ThinkPad and other portable computers have integrated Wacom digitiser technology since at least 1994 ThinkPad 730T.730T730TE During the years of Windows XP Tablet PC Edition, Wacom marketed the technology as 'Wacom Penabled'.

This tablet uses a serial connection for the stylus and touch screen.If you'd like to see raw output from it, type:cat /dev/ttyS0CTRL-C to stop. If your terminal is corrupted, type 'reset' and press Enter.
systemd
- You need the inputattach program. This may be part of a joystick package on your system. In Gentoo, it is part of games-util/joystick.
- You can test inputattach by running:
Now try to touch the screen with your finger or either end of the stylus. This is blocking. Press CTRL-C to stop it.
- To have this mapping occur automatically, create /etc/systemd/system/wacom-serial.service
- Enable the new script in systemd.
- If you're not rebooting, start the new service.
- You should see an input for touch, pen, and eraser if you run 'xinput':

Wacom Serial Tablet PC Stylus
This is a stylus made for tablet PCs by Wacom.
Features
- Chipset: Wacom
- Serial: irq 5 port 0x0200
First steps
Get the linux wacom driver and install it on your system.
The pen uses serial and appears on some /dev/ttySnn device where nn is a number. An easy way to find it is to map /dev/ttyS0 to the pen's port and irq. The values can be found under the windows driver properties. Using values from an X41 Tablet 1869-5CU, the command is:
# setserial /dev/ttyS0 port 0x0200 irq 5 autoconfig
(you need to run this after every suspend/resume cycle).This may be inserted into startup scripts in /etc/rc.d/ or /etc/rc.local
After mapping the pen, you can check its output with
# wacdump -f tpc /dev/ttyS0
. This will list raw information about the pens position an click status. Hit Ctrl+C to exit wacdump.Setting up your Xorg.conf
X-Server >= 1.8 (udev)
Wacom No Device Connected
since X-Server 1.8 udev is the default way to detect any wacom-tablet. on some distributions you have to add the file /etc/udev/rules.d/10-wacom.rules with following content:
and /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-wacom:
thanks to the Wacom Tablet - ArchWikipage and this Archlinux-Thread
X-Server >=1.6? (hal)
if HAL is configured as it should be, your wacom-tablet is working out of the box
older X-Server (static configuration)
If you are sure, you don't want to update to a newer version, add the following sections to your xorg.conf:
Check the wacom driver man page and website for other options.
For handwriting recognition using pen you can use CellWriter.
To get the right mouse button to map to the stylus button use this script and run it through .bashrc
Wacomcpl
I found it useful to create a .desktop file for launching the wacomcpl program which is used for many user options for the tablet pen.
To have your settings restore after logout/suspend/restart you will need to edit /home/yourusername/.xinitrc.Go to the last line and change
to read as
Next you need to create a new sessions preference to load the user file.
For Debian [lenny] go to System > Preferences > Sessions.Add a new startup program and add the command
click ok.
For Ubuntu use System > Preferences > Startup Applications.add the same startup program as above.

Screen rotation for X41 and X61 tablets
ROTgui - Python program for screen rotation.
The above is a simple program that you bind to a key (I bound it to the 'rotate' button on the screen) that will let you rotate the screen 4 ways (90, 180, 270 and 0 degrees).
I prefer manually selecting when I want to rotate the screen because I don't want to accidentally rotate it while moving the laptop around. Same frutteto 75 manual.
The site says it's for an X41, but I can confirm that it works on my X61 as well! (Only tried on Ubuntu, but being a Python program, it should work on other OS-es as well).
The code also has a python module, that will allow you to script your own screen control, if you'd rather not use the GUI (or want to use keybindings/write your own interface on top of it).

xrandr Rotation
There is work underway to create a Tablet Screen Rotation Support package for Ubuntu. Because I can afford only one tablet computer, and since this is relatively new and not many others have put any work into it yet, so far it mainly supports the Lenovo Thinkpad X61 Tablet. The next phase of development involves refactoring in such a way that it can easily be expanded to support other brands and models of tablet computer. The planned mechanism is similar to that used by the scripts in the Debian acpi-support package.
So far, it supports auto-rotation on conversion from laptop to tablet mode, including rebinding the navpad keys and turning the logical orientation of the Wacom tablet to match. It is done as an event called when the X Server has changed it's xRandR orientation. The actual work is carried out by a quick set of shell scripts that can easily be adapted and extended. The idea is that no matter what piece of software actually caused the X Server to rotate, the same things need to happen whenever it does. So the best place to hook in the support event is on an event handler for the RandR Rotate event. The programs and packaging are simple, and the source is available at the URL above. I encourage you to get a copy and learn from it while helping make it work for a new kind of tablet no other developer has created support for yet! If you can write an essay, you can write the necessary program.
Because this ThinkWiki page is one of the sources I drew from when I initially created tablet-screen-rotation-support. The following scripts by Gtx, radix, and Papertiger probably contain some elements in common. --KarlHegbloom 21:55, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
xrotate support scripts
linuxwacom is very buggy. I needed some time to get the tablet work with 'xrandr -r'. I use the script below to do screen rotation. copy the source an put it in /usr/local/bin/xrotate. You may change output and devices to fit to you're system (the default values work fine for an x41 tablet)
you can use 'xrotate +' to rotate the screen CCW or 'xrotate -' to rotate clockwise. use 'xrotate x' where x is
Where Is Wacom Serial Number Located
- 0 to set rotation to normal
- 1 to set rotation to left
- 2 to set rotation to inverted
- 3 to set rotation to right

modified script
On my X200 Tablet i have a 'invert' tablet button and a 'flip' button, so i modified the the script for my needs. This scripts also works with xrandr program version 1.3.2 and xsetwacom 0.10.3 under Debian Testing (Squeeze). You can call the script with './tablet.sh flip' or './tablet.sh invert'. I mapped these two functions on the hardware buttons. The full Tutorial can be found on my blog: http://dominikschuermann.de/index.php/2010/05/thinkpad-x200-tablet-for-debian-testing/
--Dominiks 18:47, 17 April 2010 (UTC)
another modified script (X41)
I'm using this script to rotate the screen on my X41 (1866-WG4). The rotation is either absolute using the arguments normal, inverted, left and right or relative to the current orientation using cw or ccw.
You will have to change lines 69 to 73 to suit your configuration. LVDS1 is the laptop screen as returned by xrandr; stylus0, cursor0 and eraser0 are what I have called the wacom devices in my xorg.conf.The software I'm using on my X41 is the following:
I am using the intel driver for the graphics adapter; unfortunately, display rotation is not possible with the kernel's intel framebuffer driver and Xorg's fbdev. Both xrandr and xsetwacom were installed from debian sid repositories, xsetwacom came with the xserver-xorg-input-wacom package, not wacom-tools.

X41 tablet with UBUNTU 10.10
On my thinkpad X41 tablet with Ubuntu 10.10 i got this message with the previous script:
In order to get it work I had to change this script a little bit (I didn't need to change or create an 'xorg.conf' or anything else, I only used this script):
1. Type in a terminal:
$ xinput
:So you know the id numbers of your Eraser (12) and Stylus (13)
2. Modify the script given in this article: Instead of 'Eraser' and 'Stylus' use your id-numbers:Change
into
So in total, you should have the following script saved in a file (for example xrandr in your homefolder /home/'username') Dr fone licensed email and code.
After you saved it as 'xrandr', open a terminal, go to the folder, in which you saved 'xrandr', and type
$ chmod +x xrandr
in order to be able to use this script with typing in an terminal
$ ./xrandr right
for right rotation and $ ./xrandr normal
for left.--User:klob 11.40, 24 October 2010 (CEST)
If you want to easily switch between two orientations, you can use the following script. You can assign this script to the corresponding button on the tablet. It os working on my Thinkpad X61 tablet. If you remove the 'yes' after flipflop= the script works as the script above.
--User:dcjfm 10.20, 23 November 2010 (CEST):
Wacom Serial Number Invalid
Troubleshooting
If the stylus still doesn't work try to reset the bios. This fixed it for me. --Gtx 08:22, 21 April 2008 (CEST)
Ubuntu 11.10 (Oneiric Ocelot): Per the thread at Ubuntuforums, comment out or remove /lib/udev/rules.d/40-inputattach.rules to get the stylus functioning.
Magick-Rotation is useful for auto-rotating the screen but may require switching the cw / ccw notations to match the stylus orientation to that of the screen (bug). --wseltzer
