I have a wacom graphics tablet that I want to maintain in "absolute"
mode. I also frequently use virtual consoles.
This seems to lose the absolute setting.
Here is an example:
Within an emacs shell on the X display:
$ xsetwacom set "Wacom Bamboo 2FG 6x8 Finger touch" "Mode" "Absolute"
> xsetwacom get "Wacom Bamboo 2FG 6x8 Finger touch" "Mode"
Absolute
<now switch to virtual console then switch back>
> xsetwacom get "Wacom Bamboo 2FG 6x8 Finger touch" "Mode"
Relative
I have the following in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-wacom.conf
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "Wacom class"
MatchProduct "Wacom|WACOM|WALTOP|Hanwang|PTK-540WL"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Driver "wacom"
Option "Mode" "Absolute"
EndSection
which doesn't seem to help.
I bet I'm missing something obvious here but would appreciate a pointer.
Thanks in advance
Peter
