Wacom - What am I missing?

Fellow Gimp Users,

My wacom graphire3 is working correctly, except for the actual tool manipulation after selecting the tool(s).

I can move windows, select tools (different for each of stylus and eraser), select colours etc. but when it comes to having the tools operate...stylus and eraser do nothing. I do not even get the brush showing under the tool's cursor on the screen.

- Debian Lenny amd64 100% up to date. Two screen with the X configuration (xorg.conf) of wacom InputDevices all set to a single screen for testing.

- Gimp 2.4.7 - distribution's .deb

Ideas?

Thanks Stephen

More information, I am getting the following error when the stylus hits the pad:

(gimp:5377): Gimp-Base-CRITICAL **: temp_buf_resize: assertion `width > 0 && height > 0' failed

Please indicate what brush you have selected (and the 'brush scale' parameter in the tool options -- I *think* that was in GIMP 2.4). It could easily be something as simple as having the brush scale cranked down to invisible levels.
Alexia Death had fixed that bug by GIMP 2.6+ (or maybe that was me. anyway she committed the patch), so if this is the problem, please consider upgrading to the latest in the 2.6 series, it mostly keeps you from having pointlessly small brush scale.

Hi there. Have not had any problems with wacom in a long time. However, have been using 32 bit fedora with graphire 2.

Since no one else has responded you may want to try seeking help on the wacom list.

https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linuxwacom-discuss

If there is nothing in the list archive that helps, you should include the output of wacdump when you post to the wacom list.

Mike

David,

I renamed my ~/.gimp-x.x directories so Gimp would start up recreating the vanilla settings.

All brushes and all scale (initial scale setting is 1.0) variations cause this error.

I guess if I want the wacom to be anything but another mouse I will have to bite the bullet and compile my own Gimp 2.6 or wait for an AMD64 Debian Lenny upgrade to 2.6. Not the end of the world, I had my own compile of 2.3 at one time.

Thanks Stephen
