NOTE: Keyboard or Mouse Needed for Installation
During installation of SUSE Linux Enterprise, the pen cannot be used as an input
device. If your Tablet PC does not feature a built-in keyboard or touch pad,
connect an external keyboard or mouse to your Tablet PC for installation of
your system.
E.1 Installing Tablet PC Packages
Because YaST does not automatically detect Tablet PCs, install additional packages
during or after installation of your system. The TabletPC installation pattern contains
the following packages:
• jarnal: a Java-based note taking application
• xournal: an application for note taking and sketching
• xstroke: a gesture recognition program for the X Window System
• xvkbd: a virtual keyboard for the X Window System
• x11-input-wacom: the X input module for Wacom tablets
• x11-input-wacom-tools: configuration, diagnostics, and libraries for Wacom
tablets
You can manually install the packages from command line or select the pattern for in-
stallation in YaST:
1 Start the YaST package manager from the command line or open YaST and select
2 For Filter, select Pattern to view the available packages grouped in patterns.
3 In the Additional Software group, mark the TabletPC pattern for installation.
4 Click Accept to start the installation of the packages.
