[Bug 410267] [NEW] Wacom Bamboo: stylus paints off-cursor in Gimp and Inkscape

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: wacom-tools

When activating the "Wacom Bamboo" device in Gimp or Inkscape
(http://img.xrmb2.net/images/599671.png), stylus and cursor position
don't match. This happens on a notebook with VESA driver, no twin view
or similar setup.

Wacom Bamboo device:
- mode "Disabled": stylus and cursor position match, but only works like a cursor (no pressure sensitivity).
- mode "Screen": stylus has a fixed offset but works like expected.
- mode "Window": stylus offset varies.

Maybe connected: using the calligraphy tool in Inkscape creates some
strange effect.

See attached screen casts.

This worked flawlessly in Ubuntu 9.04.
