[Bug 1408131] [NEW] Waycom tablet stylus fails to move on-screen pointer.

 

Public bug reported:

When I first connected the Waycom Tablet, the on-screen pointer moved as
expected with the stylus movement. However, after unplugging the USB
lead and re-inserting it, I have not been able to reproduce this
movement.

The tablet is fully functional and works perfectly when plugged into an
Apple MacBook Pro running Yosemite.

The Waycom Tablet window in System Settings correctly identifies the
tablet but the stylus has no affect on the on-screen pointer that
continues to function via the trackpad. Please note that a USB mouse,
when plugged in, is able to move the pointer along with the touch pad.

Shutting down and restarting the OS has not caused the problem to
disappear.

The LED on the tablet is illuminated thus verifying that power is
reaching the tablet. The fact that the tablet is correctly identified
suggests that the serial data via the USB is functional. The fault
exists for both USB sockets.
