Hi,

Have changes to the motion filtering accidentally broken (or obsoleted?)
the Suppress 0 case?  I see Allan reported some issues in mid 2007 about
this, so it's possible he was the only one ever using that as a workaround.

I've a hunch that it's actually just working 'correctly' now though and
with no dead zone it's just extremely hard to 'click' rather than 'drag'.
But it's been too long since I looked at that code to know what it's
really doing there now offhand ...

Either way, if the tablet works better with the default suppress than it
does with it forced to 0, that doesn't really seem like a 'bug' to me.
(If anything it's a report that an old bug is fixed now?)

What do you want to see happen here Allan?

Cheers,
Ron
