I'm getting really frustrated with odd x-input problems.
I know these are more X and Gtk+ related, and less
specific to pygtk, but perhaps someone here knows
the answer:

I want events from BOTH the core pointer and the x-input
device (tablet). I do NOT want the tablet to control the
cursor. If I did, I'd just "alwayscore" it and be done.

My problem is, when I'm receiving a stream of
motion_notify_events from my mouse, and I bring
the stylus into proximity of the tablet, I stop
receiving mouse events, and only get
tablet events.

The mouse continues to move the cursor around,
and I can select menu items and buttons, but in
the eventbox where I'm catching events,
I get no more events from the mouse. When the stylus
moves out of proximity, I start getting mouse events again.

The problem is complicated even further if I switch
devices: making the tablet the core pointer, and
using the mouse as the secondary device. In this case,
since the mouse is always "in proximity" I can't get
ANY events from the tablet in my drawing area (eventbox),
even though it is still happily controling the cursor.

Has anybody here worked with xinput?

Thanks,

Scott
