Subject: Cannot find our GTCO USB Driver in the 2.6.22-rc1 kernel

I just got finished configuring the 2.6.22-rc1 kernel and noticed that
the driver for my GTCO USB Digitizer isn't listed anymore. For that
matter, non of the tablet drivers appear to be there. I did notice that
there is a new Tablet section but, it's empty. Will the Tablet drivers
be put back in for the 2.6.22 release?

I see the driver listed in the Tablets section, but first
you must enable/check the Tablets entry...
Does that work/help you?

LOL. Thanks, I forgot to enable Tablets before entering the Tablets
tree.

Hi,

which leads to the question: Why is the "Enable Tablets" entry not
inside the tablets menu. This way it's more obvious that it's disabled
if it's the only entry in the menu. Plus the parent menu gets
cleaned up as well.

A very good question. Had it been, I probably would not have missed it.

Because some people want to be able to turn off entire set of options
without having to descend into submenu.
