Package: gnome-control-center Version: 1:3.4.2-2.1 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
certain wacom tablets offer a number of hardware buttons for common shortcuts. In the past I had to assign those buttons using xsetwacom within a short shell script. Now those settings went to "gnome-control-center wacom" and the "map buttons" function. I therefore tried to repeat my setup from the past from there: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #!/bin/bash DEVICE="Wacom Intuos4 6x9" ERASER="$DEVICE eraser" CURSOR="$DEVICE cursor" PAD="$DEVICE pad" xsetwacom set "$ERASER" Rotate half xsetwacom set "$CURSOR" Rotate half xsetwacom set "$PAD" Rotate half xsetwacom set "$PAD" Button 2 "key ctrl s" xsetwacom set "$PAD" Button 3 "key alt" xsetwacom set "$PAD" Button 4 "key ctrl" xsetwacom set "$PAD" Button 5 "key shift" xsetwacom set "$PAD" Button 6 "key x" xsetwacom set "$PAD" Button 7 "key p" xsetwacom set "$PAD" Button 8 "key c" xsetwacom set "$PAD" Button 9 "key ctrl y" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- First I found, that currently it is NOT possible to map bare modifiers like CTRL, SHIFT and ALT, which is, however, in this context very sensible and useful. The control as such just does not accept the input of ALT without any keystroke, at least I was not able to fiddle out how I should do this. I would treat this as a more critical bug as you'll want to have some of these keys if you're working with the tablet alone (without a keyboard). Secondly, given that I use the tablet in left handed orientation, I'm not sure about the numbering scheme used for the buttons. This is just an inconvenience, but for improvement of the GUI one should make this assignment clear (note that xsetwacom has the very same issue.) Anyway, to fiddle it out I just assigned the numbers 1-8 to them, to check in vi what I will get. However, I just found that no buttons at all get assigned to the tablet! I can assign whatever I want, but the tablet just doesn't send any of them back. This is the very reason for this bug report. Though everything seems to be recognized as it should (the tablet is reported properly, the syslog is clear of any errors), even orientation switching works fine, the buttons seem to be broken. I may note that buttons include here the centre keyring button meant for mode switching as well as the ring itself. It seems I get "almost" no events. Note: I refer to sending back keystrokes, I'm aware that at the moment gnome- control-centre can not set the OLEDs of the intuos4. *** Please consider answering these questions, where appropriate *** * What led up to the situation? * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? * What was the outcome of this action? * What outcome did you expect instead? *** End of the template - remove these lines *** -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gnome-control-center depends on: ii accountsservice 0.6.21-6 ii apg 2.2.3.dfsg.1-2 ii desktop-file-utils 0.20-0.1 ii gnome-control-center-data 1:3.4.2-2.1 ii gnome-desktop3-data 3.4.2-1 ii gnome-icon-theme 3.4.0-2 ii gnome-icon-theme-symbolic 3.4.0-2 ii gnome-menus 3.4.2-3 ii gnome-settings-daemon 3.4.2-5 ii gsettings-desktop-schemas 3.4.2-1 ii libatk1.0-0 2.4.0-2 ii libc6 2.13-35 ii libcairo-gobject2 1.12.2-2 ii libcairo2 1.12.2-2 ii libcanberra-gtk3-0 0.28-5 ii libcanberra0 0.28-5 ii libcheese-gtk21 3.4.2-2 ii libcheese3 3.4.2-2 ii libclutter-1.0-0 1.10.8-2 ii libcogl-pango0 1.10.2-6 ii libcogl9 1.10.2-6 ii libcolord1 0.1.21-1 ii libcomerr2 1.42.5-1 ii libcups2 1.5.3-1 ii libdbus-1-3 1.6.0-1 ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.100-1 ii libfontconfig1 2.9.0-7 ii libgcrypt11 1.5.0-3 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.26.1-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.32.3-1 ii libgnome-bluetooth10 3.4.2-1 ii libgnome-desktop-3-2 3.4.2-1 ii libgnome-menu-3-0 3.4.2-3 ii libgnomekbd7 3.4.0.2-1 ii libgnutls26 2.12.20-1 ii libgoa-1.0-0 3.4.2-1 ii libgssapi-krb5-2 1.10.1+dfsg-2 ii libgstreamer0.10-0 0.10.36-1 ii libgtk-3-0 3.4.2-3 ii libgtop2-7 2.28.4-3 ii libjson-glib-1.0-0 0.14.2-1 ii libk5crypto3 1.10.1+dfsg-2 ii libkrb5-3 1.10.1+dfsg-2 ii libnm-glib4 0.9.4.0-6 ii libnm-gtk0 0.9.4.1-2 ii libnm-util2 0.9.4.0-6 ii libnotify4 0.7.5-1 ii libpango1.0-0 1.30.0-1 ii libpolkit-gobject-1-0 0.105-1 ii libpulse-mainloop-glib0 2.0-6 ii libpulse0 2.0-6 ii libsocialweb-client2 0.25.20-2 ii libupower-glib1 0.9.17-1 ii libwacom2 0.5-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.5.0-1 ii libxcomposite1 1:0.4.3-2 ii libxdamage1 1:1.1.3-2 ii libxext6 2:1.3.1-2 ii libxfixes3 1:5.0-4 ii libxi6 2:1.6.1-1 ii libxklavier16 5.2.1-1 ii libxml2 2.8.0+dfsg1-5 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.7.dfsg-13 Versions of packages gnome-control-center recommends: ii cups-pk-helper 0.2.1.2-1 ii gnome-online-accounts 3.4.2-1 ii gnome-session 3.4.2.1-2 ii gnome-user-guide 3.4.2-1+build1 ii iso-codes 3.38-1 ii mesa-utils 8.0.1-2+b3 ii mousetweaks 3.4.2-1 ii policykit-1-gnome 0.105-2 Versions of packages gnome-control-center suggests: ii gnome-screensaver 3.4.1-1 ii gstreamer0.10-pulseaudio 0.10.31-3 ii libcanberra-gtk-module 0.28-5 ii x11-xserver-utils 7.7~3 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
