Hello Guix!

Based on this (https://www.gnu.org/software/guix/manual/en/html_node/Miscellaneous-Services.html#Miscellaneous-Services), I have included "input-attach-service-type" (with default config, that is, values left blank) to my system services in the system config. But still my stylus input is not detected.

My device is RYF-Certified TET-X200T (https://tehnoetic.com/tet-x200t).

When I checked "herd status" as root, the inputattach service was not running. Also, during the system boot, I noticed an output line "inputattach: can't set device type".

What should I do to overcome this issue?

NOTE TO MARK H.W: Sorry that I couldn't catch up with our previous discussion regarding stylus input. It appears this new service type could be a good fix.

Thank you!

Regards,
RG.

This is probably just a typo in your e-mail, but the service is 
name inputattach-service-type (no third hyphen).

I don't own an X200T, and I don't know which guide your following, 
but a random search led me here[0].  They use ‘--w8001’ while our 
service defaults to ‘--wacom’.

Does passing ‘(type "w8001")’ to inputattach-configuration change 
a thing?

Kind regards,

Yes, it was a typo. :)

I tried it. But didn't work. Now the error output line during boot " inputattach: invalid type "--w8001"".

Our inputattach says…

  --wacom          -wacom    Wacom W8001

…so I guess it was just renamed since that wiki article was 
written.

Then I'm all out of ideas, sorry.

Kind regards,

That's okay. Let us see if others or maintainer of "inputattach-service-type" has any ideas. :)
