Hello, this is the same for all devices, I think. At least it's the same for my Intuos4. But I think that's okay.
It's not the responsibility of the driver to re-initialize the device with the old settings - the driver is simply the method to communicate with it, it shall not offer any "special service" such as remembering options. You should use a dedicated tool for that. There is a certain problem though, which, however, is not to blame on the wacom but rather on X11 polcies, that is, usually UDEV should handle hotplugging these days but udev (or anything started from it) will have problems with setting xinput props because it lacks the authz to do so. I suggest you set up a simple bash script which is started with xinit and will listen for the wacom being plugged or not. Most easily, you could do this by setting up an udev rules which provides a user-readable switch (such as a file /tmp/wacom_is_plugged) when the wacom is up and removes it if it isnt. The bash script can simply run in a loop (with sleep 1000 or so) and execute your wacom_set_props.sh script if udev communicates it that the device has been plugged. I've a similar setup (not for the wacom but for an external) monitor and it works flawlessly and, best of all, is very flexible. regards, Cedric On Tue, Jan 25, 2011 at 11:48:53AM -0800, Steven L.
