Re: [Bug 786317] Re: wacom intuous3 often fails to draw stroke (release click not recognised?)

 

That is very disappointing to hear. I was really hoping that Ocelot would
magically squash this.

Does any one yet have a sense yet of what is underlying this problem? Is
there anyone out there familiar enough with Compiz, X, wacom drivers and
gimp to have a sense for what sort of things we might want to look into? Log
files that could be checked? Other bits of information that might be
gathered toward the end of diagnosing this issue?

Does anyone have any suggestions for things that could be looked into on
this front.
