Oh, sorry, I really did not mean to blame anything or anybody, sorry if my email sounded like that, it was not my intention. > Seriously though, support for the modeswitches was rushed in for GNOME > 3.4 and and I4 was all I had with a modeswitch. > [...] > gnome-settings-daemon's modeswitch code was only ever tested on an I4, > by me at least. It's probably wrong for anything else. Actually not, it probably works well on the vast majority of the tablets we support in libwacom, the only one I could find with separate mode-switches is the 24HD. And I realised the problem only once I designed the 24HD layout, and just got an email yesterday from someone asking about the odd behavior on an 24HD, so it's not like it was obvious from the beginning (at least for me). What I am after is really a way to fix this, without introducing too many ugly hacks in gnome-settings-daemon... Thus my question about using the API in libwacom to detect the different use cases. I don't have a 24HD, but for testing I plan on tweaking the I5 tablet (the one I have here) definition to use regular buttons as different mode switches, after all, the whole concept of modes and switches is purely logical. Well, if that works, that would be a cheap alternative for testing the code (once it's done) :-) Cheers, Olivier. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Rescue: Anywhere, Anytime Remote support for IT.
