Hello,

wizardpen has the problem that it is not compatible to QT-Applications, like Krita.
wizardpen is not compatible to the QTabletEvent from QT, see here:
http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/qtabletevent.html

See here, too, there is described that it works in ubuntu 9.10 but doesn't work in 10.10: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1597558

9.10 config works with setting device name to "stylus" in 9.10
with that line: <merge key="info.product" type="string">stylus</merge> in hal-config of wizardpen

Now, I'm using the wacom driver for my Genius G-Pen F610 tablet. This work's fine.
But there are other tablets that needs the wizardpen driver.

How long it does until the much drivers: wizardpen, evdev and wacom are going into one driver (a.e. the wacom driver)?
It clould be that X11 could be replaced to Wayland, that you have heared - I think.
I dont't know if this too much of work (making wizardpen working with QT), if X11 will replaced to Wayland or the much tablet drivers going into one.

The ubuntuforums-Thread says all about the problem.

Best regard and thanks

Stefan Koch
