Gimp 2.0pre2 and Tablet PC problems
Last modified: 2004-05-09 13:21:35 UTC
wacom tablet puck stylus eraser Gimp 2.0pre2 and Tablet PC problems I have a Toshiba Portege m200 and have the Wacom Tablet Drivers (Version 4.78-9) running. When these wacom drivers are not running I do not have the following problems but "corepointer" is the only device recognized and pressure sensitivity is not enabled. Two situations occur when the Wacom driver is running and gimp is started. The first: If a new composition is opened before the stylus and/or eraser touches the screen or an existing file is opened, when the stylus/eraser is put within the composition area a WindowsXP error reporting screen appears (titled gimp-1.3.exe). It reports: gimp-1.3.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. If you were in the middle of something, the information you were working on might be lost.

(eg If pencil is selected the cursor only moves as though no buttons are being pressed) Thank you for time and consideration. KM
Oh well, the tablet support on Windows is known to be buggy. Unless a skilled Win32 hacker has a look into this, it will probably never be fixed. Most probably the problem is in GTK+ or rather GDK. In my opinion the bug report should be reassigned to GTK+.
Done what Sven suggested ... *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 138341 ***
