[SOLVED] Wacom Tablet Support

Okay, I've been referring to the Arch Wiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wacom_Tablet) and I have tried everything in it to get my tablet working with no luck
My device is an Intuos Art Wacom tablet and is identified as ProductID 033c from the lsusb command:
Bus 003 Device 005: ID 056a:033c Wacom Co., Ltd
I tried putting this into /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/10-wacom.rules and restarting my computer
Currently using wacom-udev and xf86-input-wacom (already tried the git version as well)
Has anyone gotten one of these working?
Thanks in advance!

Re: [SOLVED] Wacom Tablet Support

Thanks. Installed it, going to reboot and see if that makes it work. (Edit: rebooted and the tablet still doesn't work)
Although when I installed it, I got an error that said this:
Your kernel headers for kernel 4.2.5-1-ARCH cannot be found at
/usr/lib/modules/4.2.5-1-ARCH/build or /usr/lib/modules/4.2.5-1-ARCH/source.

I don't know if that's part of why it's not working

Do you have linux-headers installed?

Re: [SOLVED] Wacom Tablet Support

You need the kernel header for compile the module wacom_dkms.

pacman -Ss linux-headers

After that reinstall the input-wacom-dkms package.

don't forget to remove the legacy wacom module.

sudo rmmod wacom

Load the wacom_dkms module

sudo modprobe wacom_dkms

plug in the intuos, that must work.
