I have recently installed Ubuntu 11.04 and I am unable to get the
buttons on the pad to respond when I am using GIMP. The pen and its
buttons are OK. Prior to installing 11.04 I was using 9.10 and the
buttons on the pad worked. The procedure I use is to run the following
script before running GIMP:-
#!/bin/bash
# If you set XSW in your environment it will override the
# script's default of /usr/bin/xsetwacom.
# If you set PAD and/or STYLUS then those override the script's
# defaults of 'Wacom Bamboo pad' and 'Wacom Bamboo' which are
# known correct for Ubuntu 9.04
# ------8<------[ Do not change this bit: ]-------------------
test "x$XSW" = "x" && XSW=/usr/bin/xsetwacom
test -x $XSW || { echo "Cannot find xsetwacom in /usr/bin"; exit 1; }
test "x$PAD" = "x" && PAD="Wacom Bamboo pad"
test "x$STYLUS" = "x" && STYLUS="Wacom Bamboo"
pad () {
$XSW set "$PAD" "$@"
}
stylus () {
$XSW set "$STYLUS" "$@"
}
# ------8<------[ Configurability from here down. ]-----------
# Define the Bamboo buttons
#
pad AbsWDn "CORE KEY + " # circle zoom out
pad AbsWUp "CORE KEY - " # circle zoom in
pad Button1 "CORE KEY CTRL /z" # key 1 (<) undo
pad Button2 "CORE KEY CTRL" # key 2 (FN1) CTRL
pad Button3 "CORE KEY SHIFT CTRL /e" # key 3 (>) fill frame
pad Button4 "CORE KEY SHIFT" # key 4 (FN2) SHIFT
stylus TPCButton "off" # side switch mode
stylus mode "Absolute" # positioning mode
stylus Button1 "Button 1" # pentip click left
stylus Button2 "Core Key x" # Lower side switch Fg/Bg -> Bg/Fg
stylus Button3 "Button 2" # Upper side switch click middle
Could someone please suggest what I might need to change or point me to
where I might find the answer to the difficulty.
Thanks
Norman
