How do I install wacom.ko on the newest Pi...

I found a file on the RasPi forum for installing a Wacom Kernel on Raspian but it is for the last edition of raspberry pi? I can't move it in the Tablet folder for some reason....

    This sounds like permission problem. If so, use sudo before the mv/cp command.

    Inside a terminal window, try to "cd" into the directory that has rpi-source script.

    Next just enter:

    ./rpi-source

     

    Clem

    PS. The directions assume some specific user knowledge of Linux unfortunately.

    Was the first error on line 9, or earlier?

    You've not pasted what you've typed, so it is ambiguous if you've just paste a random snippet of the errors or from the first error.

    Can you also try typing:

    python rpi-source

     

    (just in case it makes a difference)

    And also paste what you type and the entire CLI output. Also the contents of your rpi-source file would be good to see.

    If you can't attach the files, then you can use some web based service like pastebin.com

    and then just supply the URL.
