I saw Ubuntu patch libwacom for the BambooPT just before Precise came out. It did fix the Tablet applet crash but I didn't understand the crash given: [0xfffff] Name=General Pen Buttons=2 HasEraser=true Type=General
This brings us back to the generic styli discussion in February. I thought the conclusion was since consumer tablets don't have a serial id for the stylus we were to use either nothing or: Styli=0xfffff; If we used nothing the default would be 0xfffff anyway. It the stylus lacked an eraser or only had one button the Tablet gui just wouldn't let it be configured. But there was no point making generic styli for the permutations because there wasn't an ID to select them with. To reiterate the Bamboo Pen and Ones do not have eraser. Nor do some of the tablet PCs. Some of the tablet PCs have one button. The N-Trig tablet PCs do not have an eraser. None of the Waltops have an eraser as far as I know. For a tablet without an eraser is it safe to use? Styli=0xfffff; Jason established that if the base model tablet supports a stylus type that can come with or without an eraser, someone could buy and use a stylus with an eraser (as long as it was compatible) on a tablet originally sold with a stylus lacking an eraser. So do we need to amend e.g. the bamboo-one.tablet file? Styli= is left out, so the default is to 0xfffff, correct? But if someone buys a stylus with an eraser that works on the Bamboo One that would presumably cause a crash. Yes?
