[DIGImend-users] UC-Logic TWHA60 v3 Broken

[Scott W. <sa...@um...>]

Hello!

First of all, let me say in advance that I'm sorry if this is a repost. I
looked through the archives and haven't found anything that both is exactly
my problem and has an answer. There are a lot of similar things, but many
of them are out-of-date and some of the don't have answers.

Actual description of the problem:
---
So sometimes the tablet works for a couple of seconds, but something
happens and it starts working like a trackpad instead of a tablet. The
mouse only moves when I keep pressure on, and it's relative rather than
absolute.

I found in a previous thing in the archive the following fix:
"quirks=0x5543:0x0781:0x0040", but all this seems to do is revert it back
to its initial state of working for about 3 seconds.
---

If you need anything pasted, xinput, relevant dmesg lines, Xorg.0.log, or
any other diagnostics, I know my way well enough around them (just tell me
whether to zip them or pastebin or just put them in-line).

I'm fairly confident my tablet is the v3, but it's vaguely possible that
it's the v2. If you know of a way to tell, I can look for you.

I've got a 64-bit machine running Arch, and I've got this kernel:
4.1.2-2-ARCH #1. I'm pretty sure it's going through xf86-input-evdev.

That's all of the info I can think to give off-hand, but obviously anything
you need, I can get.

Thanks so much!

Sorry, it was late yesterday and I realized that the thread "Patching the
hid-uclogic driver for UC-Logic tablet TWHA60 v3" is not old at all. So, I
installed the latest master, and the problem is more-or-less fixed! Thanks
so much!

However, now there's a problem where when I totally remove my pen from the
tablet, it sends a right-click, which is pretty annoying.

It is worth noting, possibly, that my pen was broken, so I'm now using a
slightly different replacement pen. Monoprice claimed it would be totally
compatible, though, and we know Monoprice is always right ;)

Glad to hear it works for you!

This is strange.

Could you please send the output of "usbhid-dump -m 5543:0781 -es" where you
move the pen onto the tablet surface and then remove it, repeatedly?

Thank you.

Nick,

Thanks so much for your help! I've attached a tarball of the output.

Thanks,
Scott

PS: Sorry, I couldn't find any instructions on whether to post on the top
or the bottom, so I went with the top because that's why my client does by
default.

Alright, I see some right button bits set in the reports. Unless you were
clicking the top barrel button accidentally or intentionally, then your tablet
or your pen is faulty and it's not a problem with the driver.

Are you sure you weren't pressing the top barrel button somehow during the
test?

I was 95% sure, but just to make sure, I tried again, this time
holding it from the back (where there are no buttons). Same thing.

Oh well, guess the new pen is busted. Not too huge of a deal, since
Krita seems to ignore these right clicks, and it still honors real
right clicks.

Thanks!
Scott
