Bug Description

I believe this is a gnome shell or perhaps libmutter bug. I am having trouble using Krita, gimp, and xournalpp with my stylus pen on several laptops, a Lenovo Yoga 260, a couple of Fujitsu Lifebooks including the T935 and the U729X. It all seems to work fine under Wayland, but not on X. It works with lxde, and lxqt and kde just fine, but not Gnome Shell. This happened when I moved from Ubuntu 23.04 to 23.10. There was a recent update to libmutter that chaned the behavior and made it a tad better, but still broken (Now it works for the first stroke, but not thereafter.) There is a bug report I made for Xorg, when I thought it was maybe in Xorg here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-input-libinput/+bug/2043215
