[DIGImend-devel] Tablet diagnostics

[Fabian <scr...@gm...>]

Hi,

I just tried out my new graphics tablet and as it seems, it's not fully
supported.
The two buttons both trigger the same response.
And I have no idea how to use the 8 pseudo-buttons (called "macro keys"
on the Waltop site)

Everything else seems to work ok (full area, pressure sensitivity).

Details:
Name: "Medion P82018 (MD 86635)"
identifier: "ID 172f:0047 Waltop International Corp."

registers (in /var/log/syslog) as:
input: WALTOP International Corp. Mars Tablet as
/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:04.0/usb4/4-5/4-5:1.0/input/input26
generic-usb 0003:172F:0047.000C: input,hidraw1: USB HID v1.10 Mouse
[WALTOP International Corp. Mars Tablet] on usb-0000:00:04.0-5/input0

Official Waltop product (I guess):
Waltop Mars A
http://www.waltop.com/english/01_products/02_detail.php?SID=146

Features:
- 2048 pressure steps
- 4000 lpi precision
- 8 "button" fields on the right side of the main area that can be used
as buttons (with the pen) under windows
-- the work area (my screen) is mapped to the main area rectangle on the
tablet. The buttons are farther outside right of it.
-- I've attached a usbhid-dump (macro_buttons.txt) log for these
pseudo-buttons: For every "button" (from top to bottom) I made a
straight pen stroke from the top border to the bottom border of the
respective button, then continuied to the next.

Cheers,
Fabian
