Description Parthasarathi Susarla 2013-03-11 20:51:28 EDT
Description of problem:
Unable to map the Escape key to one of the buttons on a Wacom Cintiq 22HD pad. All other modifier keys work (alt/ctrl etc.).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
xorg-x11-drv-wacom-0.16.1-3.el6.x86_64 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6

How reproducible:
Consistent.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try and set escape to one of the buttons on the Wacom tablet:
   $ xsetwacom --set "Wacom Cintiq 22HD pad" Button 13 "key  Esc"
The command doesn't return any error, but the key isn't mapped.

  
Actual results:
Running a get results in a null:
$ xsetwacom --get "Wacom Cintiq 22HD pad" Button 13
key +(null) -(null) 

Expected results:
The button on the pad should be mapped to Escape
