Description Emil Assarsson 2010-05-08 20:22:57 UTC
The Wacom driver maps rotation on Art-pen to wheel input axis. This renders input widgets that uses this axis for input -- tabbed windows, scrolling, spin buttons etc -- unusable. This blocks the usability of Art-pen with applications like Gimp and Inkscape.
Comment 1 Emil Assarsson 2010-05-08 23:54:23 UTC
I'm getting button 4 and 5 events from the driver so I'm starting suspect that it's a problem with the driver.

xidump -u raw artpen

I'm setting this to invalid... see the note above.
