I am using a wacom bamboo graphics tablet in a dual monitor setup on Linux Mint 19 Cinnamon. My combined screen has a significantly different aspect ratio then the graphics tablet. When I draw a perfect circle on the graphics tablet the mouse on the screen draws an ellipse. **How can I map my graphics tablet to both screens preserving a correct aspect ratio?** For a correct aspect ratio a part of the tablet has to be dead. The following illustration shows my current mapping on the left, and my desired mapping on the right. current and desired mapping In the cinnamon system preferences, there is a »keep aspect ratio« setting that only works for single monitors. I can enable »keep aspect ratio« as long as »map to single monitor« is enabled. When I disable »map to single monitor« then »keep aspect ratio« automatically turns off too. non-working setting

Is it possible to configure a wacom intuos button with `xsetwacom` in a way that pressing that button enables/disables the touch function?

Debugging USB events - Lenovo wacom active pen

I am using an active pen (one that has a battery) on my Touchpad and it has stopped working. I am trying to find out whether the problem is in the hardware or software. The touchscreen is working fine, so it is only the pen/stylus version that is not working. What I have so far: 1. The devices are recognized fine, xcorat@mobilextrem:~xinput --list ... ⎜ ↳ Wacom Co.,Ltd. Pen and multitouch sensor Finger touch id=10 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ Wacom Co.,Ltd. Pen and multitouch sensor Pen stylus id=11 [slave pointer (2)] ⎜ ↳ Wacom Co.,Ltd. Pen and multitouch sensor Pen eraser id=17 [slave pointer (2)] ... 2. evemu-record shows events on the touch, but not the pen/stylus. The same thing with probing cat /dev/input/event9 vs cat /dev/input/event8 which are the pen and touch. At this point I feel like it might be the pen itself (i changed the battery :/). Is there any other layer that might be software that I am missing? OS: OpenSUSE Leap 42.3 -- Kernel 4.4.87-25 Device: Touchpad Yoga 14

I have recently installed Debian Jessie on my computer, and purchased a new Wacom Intuos tablet. I was expecting to be able to simply plug it in and use it, as I have with Wacom devices on Debian in the past, however this was not the case. GNOME's Wacom tablet configuration tool is entirely unable to detect the tablet, as is xsetwacom --list devices. /dev/wacom does not exist. I have tried to install xf86-input-wacom, as per the debian wiki , however apt reports that the package does not exist. Additionally, wacom-tools is nowhere to be found, despite the WacomTablets guide suggesting that it might help in making Wacom tablets work. **Edit:** lsusb -v information about the device: Bus 001 Device 010: ID 056a:033b Wacom Co., Ltd Device Descriptor: bLength 18 bDescriptorType 1 bcdUSB 2.00 bDeviceClass 0 (Defined at Interface level) bDeviceSubClass 0 bDeviceProtocol 0 bMaxPacketSize0 64 idVendor 0x056a Wacom Co., Ltd idProduct 0x033b bcdDevice 1.00 iManufacturer 1 iProduct 2 iSerial 0 bNumConfigurations 1 Configuration Descriptor: bLength 9 bDescriptorType 2 wTotalLength 84 bNumInterfaces 3 bConfigurationValue 1 iConfiguration 0 bmAttributes 0x80 (Bus Powered) MaxPower 498mA Interface Descriptor: bLength 9 bDescriptorType 4 bInterfaceNumber 0 bAlternateSetting 0 bNumEndpoints 1 bInterfaceClass 3 Human Interface Device bInterfaceSubClass 0 No Subclass bInterfaceProtocol 0 None iInterface 0 HID Device Descriptor: bLength 9 bDescriptorType 33 bcdHID 1.10 bCountryCode 0 Not supported bNumDescriptors 1 bDescriptorType 34 Report wDescriptorLength 208 Report Descriptors: ** UNAVAILABLE ** Endpoint Descriptor: bLength 7 bDescriptorType 5 bEndpointAddress 0x81 EP 1 IN bmAttributes 3 Transfer Type Interrupt Synch Type None Usage Type Data wMaxPacketSize 0x0010 1x 16 bytes bInterval 2 Interface Descriptor: bLength 9 bDescriptorType 4 bInterfaceNumber 1 bAlternateSetting 0 bNumEndpoints 1 bInterfaceClass 3 Human Interface Device bInterfaceSubClass 0 No Subclass bInterfaceProtocol 0 None iInterface 0 HID Device Descriptor: bLength 9 bDescriptorType 33 bcdHID 1.10 bCountryCode 0 Not supported bNumDescriptors 1 bDescriptorType 34 Report wDescriptorLength 38 Report Descriptors: ** UNAVAILABLE ** Endpoint Descriptor: bLength 7 bDescriptorType 5 bEndpointAddress 0x82 EP 2 IN bmAttributes 3 Transfer Type Interrupt Synch Type None Usage Type Data wMaxPacketSize 0x0040 1x 64 bytes bInterval 2 Interface Descriptor: bLength 9 bDescriptorType 4 bInterfaceNumber 2 bAlternateSetting 0 bNumEndpoints 1 bInterfaceClass 3 Human Interface Device bInterfaceSubClass 1 Boot Interface Subclass bInterfaceProtocol 2 Mouse iInterface 0 HID Device Descriptor: bLength 9 bDescriptorType 33 bcdHID 1.10 bCountryCode 0 Not supported bNumDescriptors 1 bDescriptorType 34 Report wDescriptorLength 52 Report Descriptors: ** UNAVAILABLE ** Endpoint Descriptor: bLength 7 bDescriptorType 5 bEndpointAddress 0x83 EP 3 IN bmAttributes 3 Transfer Type Interrupt Synch Type None Usage Type Data wMaxPacketSize 0x0040 1x 64 bytes bInterval 2 Whenever I reconnect the device, dmesg -w finds: [ 2698.799087] usb 1-2.3: New USB device found, idVendor=056a, idProduct=033b [ 2698.799110] usb 1-2.3: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0 [ 2698.799126] usb 1-2.3: Product: Intuos PS [ 2698.799139] usb 1-2.3: Manufacturer: Wacom Co.,Ltd.

I am trying to get my *Wacom Intuos CTH-490CK* up and running under Arch Linux. The device is recognized and everything but the buttons work. However, most guides suggest to install the proper kernel module, which is not necessary when using a recent kernel (*4.9.8-1* in my case). I read that removing libwacom and just installing xf86-input-wacom and input-wacom-dkms might fix my issues (post in german Arch Linux Forum ), but trying to remove *libwacom* leaves me with the following error: > error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies) > :: libinput: removing libwacom breaks dependency 'libwacom' Forcing the deletion of the package (pacman -Rdd libwacom) leaves me without mouse and keyboard or any external input devices. As I don't see a Wacom device in */dev* I added a new udev rule: $ cat /etc/udev/rules.d/10-wacom.rule ATTRS{idVendor}=="056a", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0084", SYMLINK+="input/tablet-intuos5-s" This didn't work either. I also tried a manual setup using xorg : $ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/01-wacom.conf Section "InputDevice" Driver "wacom" Identifier "stylus" Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom" # or the corresponding event?? for a static setup Option "Type" "stylus" # Option "USB" "on" # USB ONLY # Option "Mode" "Relative" # other option: "Absolute" Option "Vendor" "WACOM" # Option "tilt" "on" # add this if your tablet supports tilt Option "Threshold" "5" # the official linuxwacom howto advises this line EndSection Section "InputDevice" Driver "wacom" Identifier "pad" Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom" # or the corresponding event?? for a static setup Option "Type" "pad" # Option "USB" "on" # USB ONLY # Option "Mode" "Relative" # other option: "Absolute" Option "Vendor" "WACOM" # Option "tilt" "on" # add this if your tablet supports tilt Option "Threshold" "5" # the official linuxwacom howto advises this line EndSection Section "InputDevice" Driver "wacom" Identifier "touch" Option "Device" "/dev/input/wacom" # or the corresponding event?? for a static setup Option "Type" "touch" # Option "USB" "on" # USB ONLY # Option "Mode" "Relative" # other option: "Absolute" Do you have any suggestions on how to get the four hardware buttons on the tablet working and how I can bring up a device in */dev*?
