From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050524 Fedora/1.0.4-4 Firefox/1.0.4 Description of problem: My Wacom Volito(1), is working fine as a mouse, moving the cursor on the screen according to pen on the pad. But the pen doesn't show up in Gimp 2.2.7 > Preferences > Input Devices, therefore I can't use the pressure sensitivity. I'm not sure it's a bug, but it's a feature that I think should work "out-of-the-box". Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.2.7 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Plug in Wacom Volito into USB 2. Start Fedora Core 4, with Gnome 3. Start The Gimp 2.2.7 4. Create document and move pen around Actual Results: It didn't detect any pressure changes, it's on 100% pressure all the time. Expected Results: Lines I draw should change according to the pressure amount given. Additional info: http://www.software-documentation.org/wacom-tablet.html �7.1 "Gimp Input Devices Dialog shows "No Input Devices" Gnome and Gimp only work like a usual mouse, without pressure and tilt. It seems that you have not compiled your gtk with XInput-support. Please rebuild gtk and use ./configure --with-xinput=xfree for building the Makefile. Then do a make && make install. Then rebuild your gimp so that it uses this extendet gtk."
After some reading and some modification, the problem is no more. I made the following changes in xorg.conf: In [Section "ServerLayout"] I added InputDevice "cursor" "SendCoreEvents" InputDevice "stylus" "SendCoreEvents" and in [Section "InputDevice"] I added Section "InputDevice" Driver "wacom" Identifier "cursor" Option "Device" "/dev/input/event2" Option "Type" "cursor" Option "USB" "on" EndSection and Section "InputDevice" Driver "wacom" Identifier "stylus" Option "Device" "/dev/input/event2" Option "Type" "stylus" Option "USB" "on" EndSection Well, guess it's no bug then, but I don't think my grandma would be up to the task adding stuff in xorg.conf, so I think it should be added automatically if a Wacom unit is detected.
