Re: [Linuxwacom-discuss] Wrong Button assigned: Wacom Bamboo Fun small (2FG)

[Jason G. <kil...@gm...>]

Hi Peter,

This is unfortunately a known issue that results from a difference in how
the kernel reports the buttons on Bamboo devices
(left-click/right-click/forward/back) versus Intuos/Cintiq devices (button
0..n). There's been some recent work [1] to update libwacom to provide
GNOME with the information it needs to determine which buttons are sent by
which devices. The linked libwacom patch is still in review and will
require updates to GNOME as well even once its accepted. I unfortunately
can't give a timeline for when everything should be in place and working,
but do know that we're working on it :)

In the meantime, I've written a script [2] that will help you remap the
buttons on your bamboo so that GNOME understands them properly. It should
work as a stop-gap solution.

Now instead of four in the eights place /
you’ve got three, ‘Cause you added one  /
(That is to say, eight) to the two,     /
But you can’t take seven from three,    /
So you look at the sixty-fours....
