I was googling last night to see if my crash was known problem. By chance, one of first results is unrelated to my crash but was linuxwacom-devel mailing list from Dec 2009 that submitted patch to change from this XK_Left/Right to using XOrg 1.7 button presses. So the change is not so much my change. :-) I mentally noted it would be an issue with linuwacom but since I'm concentrating on xf86-input-wacom right now, I haven't had time to investigate xdrv side. http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg00108.html > > For the emitKeysym crash issue that Chris is facing, we need to figure > out the root cause.

I did test using xsetwacom to assign up arrow to a tablet button press and confirmed that emitKeysym does work in that code path. So it is a limited case bug. Tablet button presses and touch events are coming in over different xinput's so I was thinking maybe some sort of keyboard related initialization logic is not being invoked for mouse-like inputs. But I've got to do more studying of xinput and wacom driver to understand I guess. If my guess is true, I'd expect it probably crashes on xorg 1.6 as well. Any pointers (no pun intended :-) ) to good location for XInput documentation? I guess I can download source code and pick through it.
