Hi Scott,
could you please retest for us in rhel6 and tell if those functions satisfies your needs now? We have an erratum now so new packages are available in brew.

Thanks,
Vladimir

I noticed the status of assigned and the new packages. Is this fix ready to be tested? I have the hardware already set up and ready.

Comment 21 Peter Hutterer 2011-01-25 23:01:48 UTC
Michael, I am still waiting for the customer to confirm that this set addresses all issues. If you can confirm the same, that'd be much appreciated.

Comment 22 Michael Boisvert 2011-01-26 14:40:08 UTC
I can confirm that from basic testing, it appears that the 3 problems outlined in the previous bug have been fixed. I was able to use twinview and calibrate it onto one screen of the Cintiq 21UX, and assign tool buttons that saved.

wacomcpl-0.9.0-1.el6_0.2 and xorg-x11-drv-wacom-0.10.5-6.el6_0.2 are available in brew.

Comment 24 Vasiliy Sharapov 2011-02-17 17:00:14 UTC
The tool buttons issue is actually still there, just more subtle. Here is how to reproduce:

1. Map Button 1 on the pad to "CTRL z"
 - In .wacomcplrc it's now "core key  CTRL z"
 - Button 1 works as expected.
2. Re-open Tool Buttons, notice that Button1 shows up as "Keystroke" as it should, map Button 2 on the pad to "CTRL y", save.
 - In .wacomcplrc Button 2 is now "core key  CTRL y"
 - In .wacomcplrc Button 1 is now ""
 - Button 2 works but Button 1 does nothing.

It seems wacomcpl isn't saving the custom options it's loaded from its own configuration.

Tell us if you need any info Peter.

Hi Peter, could you please provide an update about the issue Vasiliy outlined above?

Comment 28 Michael Boisvert 2011-03-08 16:37:53 UTC
Bug tested in RHEL6.0.z with wacomcpl-0.9.0-1.el6_0.2 and xorg-x11-drv-wacom-0.10.5-6.el6_0.2, 32bit and 64bit versions. Screen mapping is now working properly in TwinView. Calibration is accurate when used in TwinView or not. Tool button assignment seems to be working properly now. 

I was seeing an issue with too button assignment a few days ago, but I have been unable to reproduce the error since. There is a new bug created for a slightly different issue, so I am going to verify this bug.
