Public bug reported: If I make a fresh 20.04 install from scratch, with the default gnome desktop, then plugging the wacom tablet below does not disturb the background, color scheme and keyboard shortcuts, like ctrl+alt+T give a terminal.
But as soon as I upgrade this install with ubuntu-unity-desktop, and I switch to use the corresponding LightDM, then the "system setting" (in the upper right corner) is not able to handle the background (to set it to a solid color, or a photo, it remains solid black), it is not able to set the theme from the default dark to the lighter "radiance", and the worst of all: the former keyboard bindings, like "ctrl+alt+T gives a terminal" are no longer executed, they are still there in the listing, we can change to what keystroke is e browser or a terminal is bind, but will not work if I press the usual combination. However, the tablet itself works immediately like a dumb mouse device. This tablet is according to lspci: ID 056a:0378 Wacom Co., Ltd CTL- 6100WL [Intuos BT (M)] Somehow plugging the Wacom to USB disables, paralyses a nice diverse selection of features, but only in the case of Unity, and NOT in the case of the default Gnome. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1890725 Title: wacom tablet disturbs unity background, color scheme and keyboard shortcuts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1890725/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
