The PenTablet does not send pressure information. The GlideSensor does, and I think it's 4 bits. There should be a Z axis mapped in evdev, and it could be read through the Xinput extension. libXi is the client-side library to support that. >From Python, you'll probably need to learn how to use ctypes. > I am thinking whether I can use it(the touch pad) as a > built-in pressure sensor. It would be great to have a working example on how to do it. Other people asked in the past, but few are familiar with Xinput and get scared away by just hearing the name :-) -- \___/ |___| Bernardo Innocenti - http://www.codewiz.org/ \___\ One Laptop Per Child - http://www.laptop.org/ _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
