[DIGImend-users] Huion H610 and Gimp: sometimes strange behaviour

[Sergey 'J. B. <ji...@me...>]

Hi,

first of all: thanks a lot for the driver! I'm on Fedora 20 with
3.18.5-101.fc20.x86_64 kernel, just plugged it in and it worked :)

I do however experience some glitches now and then and I am not sure if its
a problem with the driver or with Gimp.

Sometimes when I start Gimp I can not paint using the tablet, i.e. the input
devices does not switch to Huion when I'm trying to paint. I can still
navigate all menus and clicks on menus and toolboxes work, but painting on
the canvas is impossible. When this happens, painting with the mouse is also
impossible, while clicks on menus etc. work fine.

When this happens I have to quite Gimp, disconnect and reconnect the tablet
and start Gimp again and chances are high that it will just start working
again.

Any ideas how to debug this?

Second thing that I noticed is that it's sometimes recognized differently
in Gimp. When selecting the tablet in the input devices dialog
I will see no keys  at all, sometimes I will see >200 keys which is really
weird.

And one last question: is there also a utility, similar to the one that is
supplied with the windows drivers, to tell the tablet to send other key
combos? In default mode it sends weird combinations with ctrl- and shift-
and I somehow failed to remap that.

Kind regards,
Jin
