I mentioned in an earlier post that there was a reasonable article in the July edition of LINUX Format covering a little about I think the sort of problems you are experiencing. Editing the xorg.conf gets the erasure, buttons and circular pad working. Also within GIMP these features must be mapped to keystrokes which is done using wacompcpl tool, included apparantly in the linuxwacom package or available at http://linuxwacom.sourceforge.net
According to the article and the accompanying text file on the DVD the following lines should be added to the ServerLayout section of the xorg.conf file: InputDevice "stylus" "SendCoreEvents" InputDevice "cursor" "SendCoreEvents" InputDevice "eraser" "SendCoreEvents" InputDevice "pad" "SendCoreEvents" The following lines should be added to the end of xorg.conf file: Section "InputDevice" Driver "wacom" Identifier "stylus" Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom" Option "Type" "stylus" Option "USB" "on" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Driver "wacom" Identifier "eraser" Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom" Option "Type" "eraser" Option "USB" "on" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Driver "wacom" Identifier "cursor" Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom" Option "Type" "cursor" Option "USB" "on" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Driver "wacom" Identifier "pad" Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom" Option "Type" "pad" Option "USB" "on" Option "Button1" "6" Option "Button2" "7" Option "Button3" "4" Option "Button4" "5" EndSection -- [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
