Hi,
My Wacom Intuos CTL-4100 pen tablet is recognized and works well on FreeBSD 14. However, I've encountered an issue where the tablet fails to function after the computer has been shut down and then turned back on.
Here's how I installed the tablet:
After reboot, the dmesg shows this, and the tablet works fine:
After every reboot, the device functions perfectly fine, and the same dmesg:
However, when I power on the computer after a shutdown, the dmesg output changes, and the tablet no longer functions:
Notice how the tablet disconnects at one point and reconnects at the next step, but that disconnection causes my Wacom tablet to freeze up.
To get things working again until I shut down my laptop, I need to perform a hard reset on the Wacom tablet by pressing four buttons on it. After that, everything works properly. Restarting the computer following this hard reset is fine, and no matter how many times I restart, I always get a dmesg with no disconnection. However, the problem returns after the next shutdown, causing the tablet to freeze up again.
Has anyone encountered a similar issue? I would appreciate any suggestions.
I tried changing webcamd_enable from YES to NO in rc.conf to see what happens. I noticed that when webcamd is not enabled, the tablet remains constantly powered on, even though it doesn't work. However, I see that the LED is lit, which means it hasn't completely crashed. At this stage, I could say that the issue might be with webcamd, as it behaves strangely after a shutdown, but I might be wrong.
