[Bug 300143] Re: tablet devices show up as non-functional joysticks
Please open a new bug report for this. The result may be the same but the device is again a completely new case. In this report (closed a long while ago) the devices in question could be identified by a certain key (BTN_DIGI) which this one does not set. Most properties resemble the definition of an absolute mouse, but again the defined buttons do not match the current definition. So this requires a new strategy and some research.

[Bug 300143] Re: tablet devices show up as non-functional joysticks
I hope to be able to clarify the situation here. The problem initially reported with this bug is the fact that tablet devices did show up as non-functional joysticks and this has been fixed by blacklisting devices that report to have a BTN_DIGI. Basically the first button a device gets assigned classifies the function of it. This was all well as long as joysticks had the limited number of buttons the developers anticipated. But with joysticks that have more than that, this does not work and those incorrectly get assigned buttons that classify other devices (like BTN_GAMEPAD and BTN_DIGI). But this is a different problem which also has been reported http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/492056 and I would continue with that issue over there. Tablets should work (again), starting with Karmic and so this bug is considered to be closed. -- tablet devices show up as non-functional joysticks https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/300143 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 300143] Re: tablet devices show up as non-functional joysticks
Hi I hope i can permit to give my two cents about this : I'm a owner of a X52, and i wonder if all this stuff around BTM_DIGI is related to the fact that this stick gets a mouse control (with its click button). For the 39 buttons it has (of course) quite less but it has a mode switch that acts like the shift key of a keyboard. May I add, that, to get my x52 working back I reverted the changes that had been made on the kernel.After booting on my new kernel; x52 and my graphire 4 wacom tablet worked both quite fine. that's just my two cehts; hope this helps Regards Jean-michel -- tablet devices show up as non-functional joysticks https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/300143 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 300143] Re: tablet devices show up as non-functional joysticks
There has been some more discussion on that (see http://markmail.org/message/5jraw2mk6k6nvlos). In essence the maintainer seemed to be rather thinking that the joystick should not use the BTM_DIGI. Unfortunately I don't know what the solution should be and the discussion went silent after that. Probably the best solution would be to have a new bug about the regression with the upstream but linked to that and also to try to approach Jiri and/or Dmitry to ask about the current status on that. -- tablet devices show up as non-functional joysticks https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/300143 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Re: [Bug 300143] Re: tablet devices show up as non-functional joysticks
Nobody really wants to keep a blacklist in sync manually with devices popping up and going at a rate they do. The detection based on the BTN codes might or might not be ideal. But on the other hand any device can only claim to be something, so your theoretical device with all in one likely needs to present several sub-devices, each for any function.

[Bug 300143] Re: tablet devices show up as non-functional joysticks
Can someone with an affected tablet check the current proposed kernel to see whether the issue got fixed there. I only have a Bamboo to test and that seems to get the BTN_TOUCH key set, so it does not trigger the bug. -- tablet devices show up as non-functional joysticks https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/300143 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

(BTN_TOUCH = 0x14a, which is a mask of 400 0 0 0 0 0, which doesn't correspond to any of the bits set in the above keybits.) Looking at the upstream kernel sources for 2.6.27, it looks like BTN_TOUCH *is* be getting set for wacom tablet keybits in drivers/input/tablet/wacom_sys.c, so this may be something broken specifically in Ubuntu. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Confirmed -- wacom tablet shows up as (non-functional) joystick https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/300143 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 300143] Re: wacom tablet shows up as (non-functional) joystick
Looking at our own patched kernel sources, it looks like we report
BTN_TOUCH only for TabletPC. Which may actually be correct.
In that case, though, we also need to augment the blacklist in joydev,
which is currently still just:
static const struct input_device_id joydev_blacklist[] = {
{
.flags = INPUT_DEVICE_ID_MATCH_EVBIT |
INPUT_DEVICE_ID_MATCH_KEYBIT,
.evbit = { BIT_MASK(EV_KEY) },
.keybit = { [BIT_WORD(BTN_TOUCH)] = BIT_MASK(BTN_TOUCH) },
}, /* Avoid itouchpads, touchscreens and tablets */
{ } /* Terminating entry */
};

Looking at the source, it looks like blacklisting BTN_DIGI in addition
to BTN_TOUCH for joysticks is the correct thing to do. So that would
be:
static const struct input_device_id joydev_blacklist[] = {
{
.flags = INPUT_DEVICE_ID_MATCH_EVBIT |
INPUT_DEVICE_ID_MATCH_KEYBIT,
.evbit = { BIT_MASK(EV_KEY) },

}, /* Avoid itouchpads and touchscreens */
{
.flags = INPUT_DEVICE_ID_MATCH_EVBIT |
INPUT_DEVICE_ID_MATCH_KEYBIT,
.evbit = { BIT_MASK(EV_KEY) },
.keybit = { [BIT_WORD(BTN_DIGI)] = BIT_MASK(BTN_DIGI) },
}, /* Avoid tablets and similar devices */
{ } /* Terminating entry */
};

[Bug 300143] Re: Wacom Joystick device interferes with joystick-using games in X
In this case, i do have a joystick already hooked up, so the tablet is js1 instead of js0, but here are the requested files. I've changed my xorg config file slightly since originally filing the bug report, to override the HAL hotplug detection of my Tablet, but that had no effect on the problem. I will mark the areas changed. ** Attachment added: Output of lspci -vvnn http://launchpadlibrarian.net/20786385/lspci.out -- Wacom Joystick device interferes with joystick-using games in X https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/300143 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 300143] [NEW] Wacom Joystick device interferes with joystick-using games in X
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: wacom-tools In Intrepid, the Wacom driver seems to create a /dev/input/js node-- When X is running, these devices are nonfunctional--they return -32768 on all axes, according to jstest. Unfortunately, this plays havoc with games that use joysticks-- if the tablet happens to be joystick zero, the game tries to use it, and ends up with a joystick that's stuck at full up-left. Udev hackery might be able to solve this, but for the time being i've been relegated to manually deleting the tablet's joystick node before starting up any games. ** Affects: wacom-tools (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Wacom Joystick device interferes with joystick-using games in X https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/300143 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
