Hi, Thanks for the elaborate answer!
I've implemented ABS_MISC events with the device ID that got returned from the hardware. However, this seems to have introduced a few bugs. When the stylus comes in-prox, the pointer jumps to (0,0) (the upper left of the screen) for a fraction of a second (even if I don't explicitly reset all values to 0 when going out-prox). When the mouse puck comes in-prox, the mouse pointer jumps to the lower right of the screen (and stays there, because the mouse acts with relative displacements). When the mouse comes in-prox after the stylus, the pointer is only affected by the movement of the stylus. When the stylus comes in-prox after the mouse, the pointer 'freezes' and won't respond to movement until one of the devices leaves proximity. I couldn't find an obvious bug by going over the code (quickly). Is this behaviour due to X not knowing the concept of two concurrent pointing devices, or is there something wrong with my implementation? (not that unlikely ;-)). I'd still like to know that the expected behaviour should be when the two channels are working properly, is there any way to test or verify this? What should be the exact events that I'm getting (eg captured with evtest or similar)? I also have a small question, just to be sure I'm doing it right: > A tablet declaring ABS_MISC support+tablet ID > together is what xf86-input-wacom uses to detect its a protocol 5 > device (multi-tool in proximity feature). Just to be sure: with "declaring tabled ID", you mean MSC_SERIAL events (with the serial number as received by the hardware), correct? Lastly, for what it's worth, I'm running a 2.6.39.2 kernel with a 1.10.2 xorg server and xf86-input-wacom 0.11.0.
