Hello all, I'd like to use a wacom bamboo graphic tablet as an alternative pointing device, mainly to draw on virtual whiteboards to do maths in conference calls. At the moment, this is not possible: Connecting the graphic tablet and passing it to the relevant VM produces no effect whatsoever. The tablet is listed among the usb devices but, if for instance one is using the standard fedora template, nothing is shown clicking on the "wacom tablet" application that can be found in /urs/share/applications, nor is it possible to use it to draw stuff.
This looks like an old issue: https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/2715 I'd be interested in using only the basic tablet features (essentially moving the mouse and clicking around using the tablet would be enough). In the issue linked above it is said that "this in theory should be easy (a matter adding proper metadata - min/max - to the protocol handshake, and filtering events based on this info)" I'd like to help with this, but I am no coder. I just know a bit of bash scripting and trying to check the code in https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-app-linux-input-proxy/blob/master/src/protocol.h#L17-L28 didn't really help. I understand that developers are quite busy with much more hardcore problems to solve, but if someone could at least point me to the right research direction I could try to investigate this by myself.
