Extended input devices in 2.3.x

I've tried 2.3.6 and 2.3.7 and neither seem to work with extended input devices (It always says none exist when I try configuring them). 2.2.10 works fine and has no problems with my tablet. I didn't use the configure option to disable extended input devices when building; is there another dependancy/option I'm missing or is it broken in 2.3.x?

Thanks-
Larry

Extended input device support is a feature of GTK and not of GIMP (although haven't seen 2.3.x series, maybe something changed there). The extended input device setup dialog is a standard GTK dialog (see gtk_input_dialog_new()).

Try the scribble-xinput example application from gtk source tree; if it works and in GIMP the dialog says 'no extended input devices' then it indeed seems a GIMP problem.

Sorry, I should have replied to the list sooner. Another member's (David Gowers) suggestion to use the --with-xinput when compiling GTK worked perfectly.

Thanks-
