Description Michael Boisvert 2016-03-15 19:47:33 UTC
Description of problem: Using the Lenovo x230t with another Wacom screen tablet as a second monitor causes all the inputs from the x230t (stylus/touch) to operate the second monitor instead of it's own screen. 


How reproducible: Always with spanned/extended monitor configuration. 


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Plug in a Wacom screen tablet into the display port of a Lenovo x230t.
2. Use the stylus or touch the x230t's screen.

Actual results: Both inputs control the pointer on the second display instead of the x230t's screen. 


Expected results: Touching the screen moves the pointer on the x230t's screen, as does the stylus.


Additional info: This ONLY happens with a Wacom screen tablet as a second monitor and the USB cable does not need to be plugged into the x230t.

Punting this to g-s-d, screen assignment is handled there.

I wouldn't spend too much time trying to get this working in RHEL 6.8. It should already work in 7.2, which has much better Wacom support.
