Gimp 2.4.x and xinput question

Hi all,

I remember that I had to configure Gtk+ and Gimp with the option --with-xinput=xfree when I want to use a Wacom tablet in Gimp on a Linux box.

Is this still true ? I can't find this option anymore when running ./configure --help.

Regards,
Stephan.

GIMP has never had that configure option. You need to pass --with-xinput=yes to GTK+ to enable XInput support; where you got 'xfree' from baffles me.
Then after rebuilding and reinstalling GTK+, and rebuilding and reinstalling GIMP, you should have XInput support in GIMP

You don't need to rebuild GIMP. Building GTK+ with XInput support should be sufficient.
