Thanks for your bug report Cedric. I've bumped the linxuwacom ebuild in my overlay (ikelos) to linuxwacom-0.8.3_p2, which is the latest development version available from upstream. This already features HAL support, and I've just tried it now, it seems to be doing very well. One thing to note is that after you've installed this, you'll need to restart the HAL service (or send it some appropriate signal) so that it rereads the .fdi files available in the shared directory. Once that's done (and X restarts), everything should just work... 5:) Please let me know here if you run into any trouble with it, otherwise it will get pushed to the main tree in the next couple of weeks (and feel free to give me a prod should I forget). Thanks! 5:) (In reply to comment #1) > Thanks for your bug report Cedric.

Sorry about that Cedric, I left a "die" in right at the end whilst I was testing the fdi file installation, and forgot to take it out. It's now been removed, please try again (sorry!)...

However, there is a problem when using mouse _and_ stylus/eraser in GIMP. I shows the following behavior and the mentioned workarounds work also, Unfortunately only until the next use of the stylus/eraser. This means, the use of mouse and stylus/eraser can _not_ be arbitrarily mixed, which is undesired IMHO. http://groups.google.com/group/comp.graphics.apps.gimp/browse_thread/thread/e57fd940ccd37770 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=463772 http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=406440 As stated there also, Inkscape has no problems with mixed input. Therefore I tried to setup my xorg.conf of the stylus and eraser as fdi-files and ran into the next problem: KDE is starting up, but all of a sudden, it dies and brings me back to the login-screen of xdm/kdm. So apparently, either it doesn' work to configure manually with the new linuxwacom version or one has to be very careful with the configuration. I only tried some of the possible combinations. This problem seems GIMP related as in Inkscape it works and stylus/eraser work great under KDE also, thus I think it's rather unrelated to this bug. However, it might help someone when encountering the same problem.

And tadaaa, I can now mix everything as I want! The only thing I need to do when wanting to use the mouse is to move the cursor out of the drawing window and then I can go back in it and draw with the mouse aswell. For me, all issues are now solved. Thanks again Mike! *** Bug 266176 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Ok, this has just been pushed to the tree, so I'm going to mark this as FIXED. If you have any issues with the driver, please open them as new bugs. Thanks... 5:) |
