Description Carlos Garnacho 2017-08-15 14:56:33 UTC
The Wacom ExpressKey Remote is a standalone tablet pad meant to be paired with a real tablet. This works on wayland because we know the tablet this EKR device is paired with through libinput.

On X11 this is missing though, we can't know the device the EKR is paired with so we'd have to pick one of the available tablets to pair it with for it to be usable there. The "good news" is that on X11 the reasons to have it properly paired to a tablet are moot, we have a single keyboard and a single pointer focus, so there's no special distinction across tablets.

GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org.
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
