Wacom Touch Inverted After Rotation

[Ryan Bray]

This is for the Beta 1 of Lucid.

When I use xsetwacom to rotate the screen, the axis seem to rotate properly for upon "clicking" the touch, but upon release, the axis seem to go to how they would be portrayed in a non-rotated axis (ie. inverted). So in effect, I can click and drag things, but when I release, the cursor jumps to the opposite side of the screen.

Hi Ryan,

If you could also please test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.

Thanks in advance.

I'm also experiencing this bug, or remarkably similar. After using xsetwacom to perform screen rotation, the Wacom Touch device registers initial screen presses in the correct location, but upon release the cursor jumps back to the normal, non-rotated position on the screen.This creates remarkable inconsistencies in using any UI, since some actions take place on button-press (click to drag, etc) and some on button-release (launching programs, etc.)

My system is a Lenovo ThinkPad X61 Tablet, running the release version of Lucid. Please let me know if there is any other info I can provide to help!

The same on HP Pavilion tx 2000, but only for TOUCH, not for STYLUS or mouse pointer

TOUCH = touchscreen, touchpad is OK

[Paulo Costa (paulo-inutilfutil)]

It has been resolved in linuxwacom 0.8.6-1.
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=2938348&group_id=69596&atid=525124

Unfortunately, I don't know if linuxwacom and xf86-input-wacom are still the same project.
