Subject: krita: Krita lacks all tablet support. Package: krita Version: 1:1.4.99-1 Severity: important
*** Please type your report below this line *** I think that this may be a larger issue with Debian QT packages as per this mailing list for Kubuntu illistrates: http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-kimageshop&m=111968589529168&w=2 But I don't know anything about how QT works or anything like that and the only application that I have this problem in is Krita. Krita is a drawing/painting program and without having the ability to draw or paint with a wacom-style tablet is a big problem. Just so you know I am using a wacom tablet with the correct setup in my X.org configuration file. I use it in Gimp all the time. Pressure sensitivity and everything works just fine. In fact the specific reason the original author wrote this program is for the tablet support, from what I understand, and that it has very good support, which I wanted to try out. Maybe it does have tablet support though and I am just confused. What happens is that I use a mouse to open it up and select some options and whatnot. I fill the background with white and then switch to my tablet pen. I try to select the 'draw' icon, which gets selected but when I try to draw it is unusable. Sometimes all I get is a dot, other times I get these realy long lines. Othertimes the mouse pointer is showing a drawing thing, but when I tap it goes back to the paint bucket (which is what I have selected under the mouse) and fills the image with a single color. What should happen is that you can have different tools selected for each item. When you tap the pen you have one tool.. You can then flip it over and maybe select the 'erase' tool with the 'erasor' end of the pen. Then you can select a tool with the mouse. (note that this is a logitech mouse that I am using and not the wacom mouse suplied with the table). Then as you draw you can switch to the mouse and pen and flip the pen around to quickly change tools. This makes doing artwork and such much more efficient then would otherwise be possible. As well as other features such as pressure sensitivity and other related items are indepsensable for getting the right look. Please fix this problem or at least point out were I am 'just not getting it'. Thank you for your time. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-1-k7 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages krita depends on: ii kdelibs4c2a 4:3.5.2-1 core libraries for all KDE applica ii koffice-libs 1:1.4.99-1 common libraries and binaries for ii krita-data 1:1.4.99-1 data files for Krita painting prog ii libbz2-1.0 1.0.3-2 high-quality block-sorting file co ii libc6 2.3.6-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libexif12 0.6.13-4 library to parse EXIF files ii libfreetype6 2.1.10-3 FreeType 2 font engine, shared lib ii libgcc1 1:4.1.0-1 GCC support library ii libglu1-xorg [libglu1] 6.9.0.dfsg.1-5 Mesa OpenGL utility library [X.Org ii libice6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-5 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libjasper-1.701-1 1.701.0-2 The JasPer JPEG-2000 runtime libra ii libjpeg62 6b-12 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii liblcms1 1.13-1 Color management library ii libmagick9 7:6.2.4.5-0.8 Image manipulation library ii libopenexr2c2a 1.2.2-4.2 runtime files for the OpenEXR imag ii libpng12-0 1.2.8rel-5.1 PNG library - runtime ii libqt3-mt 3:3.3.6-1 Qt GUI Library (Threaded runtime v ii libsm6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-5 X Window System Session Management ii libstdc++6 4.1.0-1 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libtiff4 3.8.2-1 Tag Image File Format (TIFF) libra ii libx11-6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-5 X Window System protocol client li ii libxext6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-5 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxi6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-5 X Window System Input extension li ii libxml2 2.6.23.dfsg.2-3 GNOME XML library ii xlibmesa-gl [libgl1] 6.9.0.dfsg.1-5 Mesa 3D graphics library [X.Org] ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3-11 compression library - runtime krita recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
