Is there something very simple that I'm missing here - some step I haven't done right?
I have a Wacom Intuos3 6x8 size. The driver seems to like it just fine. I'm using it in Gimp and everything seems to be working with no complaints or weird behavior. The problem is that I can't get the xsetwacom program to do anything. It doesn't give me any errors, but any changes I make with it have no effect, and when I try to use it to get parameters, the result is always zero, for all parameters. (What I'm trying to do is alter the aspect ratio by changing TopY, to make the tablet have a 16:10 ratio to match the widescreen display on my laptop.) Here's a dump of what happens when I try this: bash-3.1# xsetwacom set "stylus" "TopY" "4000" bash-3.1# echo $? 0 bash-3.1# xsetwacom -s get "stylus" "TopY" xsetwacom set stylus TopY "0" bash-3.1# the setting I changed did not take effect (and I can confirm this by using the tablet - nothing changed in its behavior) When I do a "xsetwacom -s get "stylus" "all" I end up wtih a dump where every single parameter has a value of zero (or "off" for the boolean values). For reference, here are the outputs of some other commands: bash-3.1# xsetwacom --version 0.0.7 bash-3.1# xsetwacom list dev pad pad cursor cursor eraser eraser stylus stylus bash-3.1# xsetpointer -l "pad" [XExtensionDevice] "cursor" [XExtensionDevice] "eraser" [XExtensionDevice] "stylus" [XExtensionDevice] "Mouse0" [XExtensionDevice] "Synaptics" [XPointer] "Keyboard0" [XKeyboard] "NVIDIA Event Handler" [XExtensionDevice] bash-3.1# grep -i wacom /var/log/dmesg input: Wacom Intuos3 6x8 as /class/input/input2 usbcore: registered new driver wacom drivers/usb/input/wacom.c: v1.44:USB Wacom Graphire and Wacom Intuos tablet driver input: Wacom Intuos3 6x8 as /class/input/input3 input: Wacom Intuos3 6x8 as /class/input/input4 input: Wacom Intuos3 6x8 as /class/input/input5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
