Comment 4 for bug 184996

The Use XInput option did get the annotation tools working for me also. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get my tablet functions working yet, but I assume that since they work with mouse, they will work with pen.

Respectfully,
Arick R. McNiel-Cho

Subject: [Bug 184996] Re: Annotation tools are broken in hardy

Today
I
tried
xournal
again
with
"Use
XInput"
deactivated
(following
your
suggestion
above)
and
now
most
things
seem
to
work
almost
as
on
Feisty/Gutsy,
except
that
the
drawings
aren't
smooth
as
you
already
noted.

I
also
checked
against
my
Feisty
installation
of
xournal
(0.3.3)
and
there
the
"Use
XInput"
option
is
not
enabled
by
default.
In
fact,
the
corresponding
menu
entry
is
grey/deactivated.
Since
I
don't
have
a
tablet
PC
I
can't
check
whether
it
would
work
with
the
pen.

So
I
think
90%
of
this
bug
(at
least
#1
and
#3)
could
be
fixed
by
just
not
making
"Use
XInput"
the
default
or
somehow
have
this
depend
on
whether
xournal
runs
on
a
tablet
PC
or
not.
Just
moving
away
.xournal
does
btw.
not
help
on
my
installation.

What
remains
are
the
slightly
square-edged
drawings
and
the
eraser
problem.
I
can
considerably
improve
on
the
latter
by
choosing
"Tools/Eraser
Options/Standard".
"Delete
Strokes"
on
the
other
hand
leads
to
the
very
strange
behaviour
mentioned
above
under
#2.
