I need the evemu-describe output of the wacom device please. I tried: # evemu-describe /dev/input/event0 for all the paths in /dev/input/... but none of them seem to be a wacom device. Sorry for the cluelessness but what should I do? # xsetwacom --list Serial Wacom Tablet WACf00c stylus id: 15 type: STYLUS Serial Wacom Tablet WACf00c eraser id: 16 type: ERASER Serial Wacom Tablet WACf00c touch id: 17 type: TOUCH (there is no /dev/input/event15, 16 or 17 if that's what "id" is...) oh, right. that's a serial device then. xinput --list --long should give me enough information. you can fetch the error message by updating libwacom, running gnome-control-center and then downgrading again (to avoid messing up your session).

$ gnome-control-center ** libwacom:ERROR:libwacom.c:180:get_device_info: assertion failed: (product_str) Aborted $ (error happens when I click on the wacom icon, not when I start gnome-c-c.) Maybe worth noting that with libwacom-0.4 downgraded my touchscreen doesn't work: it always behaves like relative (touchpad) motion instead of absolute. Perhaps I can fix this with xsetwacom but I haven't tried. Pen still works in absolute mode. FWIW, both work out-of-box in F16 (well except when changing resolutions, external screens, etc which required messing around with xsetwacom). libwacom-0.5-3.fc17 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 17. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/libwacom-0.5-3.fc17 Package libwacom-0.5-3.fc17: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 17 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing libwacom-0.5-3.fc17' as soon as you are able to. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2012-7509/libwacom-0.5-3.fc17 then log in and leave karma (feedback). That's certainly an improvement in that I can start gnome-control-center and click on the wacom icon. I haven't tried logging out to see if it fixes the gnome-settings-daemon problem. I will report back when I have. However, gnome-control-center is not functional. Instead of options like relative versus absolute position, there are two buttons "Calibrate..." and "Map Buttons..." and clicking on these gives errors: $ gnome-control-center (gnome-control-center:11071): wacom-cc-panel-CRITICAL **: gsd_wacom_device_get_buttons: assertion `GSD_IS_WACOM_DEVICE (device)' failed (gnome-control-center:11071): wacom-cc-panel-WARNING **: No fuzzy match based on heuristics was found. (gnome-control-center:11071): wacom-cc-panel-CRITICAL **: Output associated with the tablet is not connected. Unable to calibrate. But perhaps this is a different bug. Can you please add a +1 on the update, as long as it's still working better than previous builds? Even if it's not perfect, as long as it's an improvement we want to pull the update for Final. thanks! -- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers (In reply to comment #9) > However, gnome-control-center is not functional.

Unable to calibrate. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=676006 For completeness: having now restarted my system, this bug is fixed and my serial touch device works correctly. Thanks reporting the other issues upstream for me. *Please* don't close bugs until the update is pushed stable. Especially during freezes, and double-especially blocker bugs. When they get closed, they drop right off of our blocker tracking radar. -- Fedora Bugzappers volunteer triage team https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers libwacom-0.5-3.fc17 has been pushed to the Fedora 17 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. |
