Re: [kde] How to setup a wacom tablet and/or a touchscreen in a two monitors configuration?
Basically you need to set it with xsetwacom man xsetwacom MapToOutput [output] Map the tablet's input area to a given output (e.g. "VGA1"). Output names may either be the name of a head available through the XRandR extension, or an X11 geometry string of the form WIDTHxHEIGHT+X+Y. To switch to the next available output, the "next" keyword is also supported. This will cycle between the individual monitors connected to the system, and then the entire desktop. The mapping may be reset to the entire desktop at any time with the output name "desktop". Users of the NVIDIA binary driver should use the output names "HEAD-0" and "HEAD-1" until the driver supports XRandR 1.2 or later. and to do that everytime you login in i guess you should create a little bash script and put it on your $HOME/.kde/Autostart folder * but i am not sure i guess you should read this first *for reference : http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1656089 and this http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/linuxwacom/index.php?title=Wacom_Tablet_Set_Up there is section where you should seee Dual and Multi-Monitor Set Up 2012/5/27 Marcelo Magno T.

[kde] How to setup a wacom tablet and/or a touchscreen in a two monitors configuration?
Hello, I don't know if this problem can be solved within KDE or if it must be solved somewhere in xorg configuration. If anyone can give me directions on what exactly should I look for, I will be grateful. I use two monitors with 1920x1080 resolution, one above the other, and the desktop is extended across them. My desktop, therefore, has a 1920x2160 resolution. The lower monitor has a touchscreen and the upper monitor has not. However, right now I'm not able to use the touchscreen properly because X interprets the touches as if the touchscreen area was over both monitors. For example, if I touch the middle of the lower monitor (which should be around coordinate [960,1620]), X thinks I've clicked the middle of the entire desktop (around coordinate [960,1080], i.e., the mouse cursor goes to the top of the lower monitor / bottom of the upper monitor). If I touch the top of the lower monitor, the top of the desktop is clicked insted (i.e., the top of the upper monitor). How can I configure KDE or X so they know that the touchscreen covers only the lower monitor? Similar problem occurs with a wacom digitizing tablet. I would like the tablet area would correspond to just one of the monitors, not the entire desktop. How can I setup this? Thanks, Marcelo___ This message is from the kde mailing list.

However, since yesterday, the configuration saved as default in System Settings began to stick. Now I can logout and login again and the monitors configuration stays as I had left it. I didn't do anything different, there were no updates... Don't know why it works now (not complaining, not complaining at all! :) ) However, right after this began to work, this other problem showed up: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=300642 It seems I can never have KDE working 100%. Every time I fix a problem, another one shows up. Even so, KDE is still better than the available alternatives. At least KDE ends up doing what I want after some hard work. But Gnome and Unity don't, no matter how hard I try :) []'s Marcelo ___ This message is from the kde mailing list. Account management: https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde.

Select Display and Monitor, select Multiple Monitors, and there you are. It works very good. Stef It works, but after a reboot KDE forgets what had been configured and goes back to clone mode again.

Apparently, some of the knobs power devil was using weren't designed to to be individually tweaked, and they either disappeared entirely or there were bugs related to their use that were closed WONTFIX as they weren't supposed to be directly tweaked in the first place. So power devil didn't have much of a choice. They could either do the complicated thing and provide a GUI that allowed setting most of what laptop-mode-tools does, but that was several times more complex than what they were doing, or go the simple, dumbed-down route. For now, they went the dumbed-down route. It's possible they'll eventually expose the complex config to those that want it, but that's a lot of code to write and test, so dumbed-down is what they'd be exposing temporarily, until the complex code could be written and tested, in any case. As far as I understand the setup, the UI and the actual power managment code are separate entities, so if the management code does allow for more fine grained control somebody could write an alternative UI for it which exposes those controls. One could check with the author of the new UI whether it would be possible to upload the old UI to kde-apps or something. Cheers, Kevin ___ This message is from the kde mailing list.
