X60t - clean XP install

#1 Post by tinkerer » Fri Feb 24, 2012 7:45 pm

Which stuff from Lenovo do I need to install to get the pen and screen rotation to work?

I don't have XP Tablet edition handy, but do have SP3, and my understanding is that the tablet stuff was included in SP2.


Was working on using Linux, but have given up as I need this thing up and running sooner than later for school.

thanks.

Hey tinkerer,

My understanding was that you needed XP Tablet Edition to get the pen and screen rotation to work. Whether it is SP2 and SP3 I don't think matters.

There are other drivers you can probably find to rotate your screen, but I don't think you can get the pen input without extra software or Tablet Edition.
