Yup, that did the trick. Strangely enough after that I could put the settings 
back to where I set them in the first place, and things kept working.


No idea if GIMP (or rather GTK+) should be able to pick up the tablet
regardless of their existence, or if these settings prevent it from doing 
so.


It would help if the GIMP GUI would tell me what being grayed out actually 
means. Now there is no indication, except that "it's different from the 
non-grayed out core pointer".
Thought grayed out meant "is not possible in the current state of things." Is 
that not what it means in the GIMP?


Thanks for the quick help!

According to report we got, this has worked for some people.


HTH,

[Gimp-user] Wacom tablet devices grayed out

[Sybren A . Stüvel]

Hi list,

I'm using Gimp 2.8.0 on Windows 7 64-bit. My Wacom Bamboo Pen & Touch
tablet is recognised by Gimp, but doesn't work properly. It acts like a
normal mouse, rather than giving me pressure sensitivity. When I go to Edit
-> Input Devices I see three devices:

  - Core Pointer (shown in black)
  - WACOM Tablet Eraser (shown in gray)
  - WACOM Tablet Pressure Stylus (shown in gray)

I've set the mode of the two WACOM devices to "Screen", but still I get no
pressure sensitivity. My bet is that it has something to do with the
devices being shown in gray, but I can't find any indication of what this
means or how to fix it. I've already updated my Wacom drivers to the latest
version, and the tablet has been plugged in from boot, so definitely way
before I start Gimp.

Another tablet problem that I have that may or may not be related, is that
sometimes clicks with my stylus register only "half". With that I mean that
sometimes clicking on a button will move the keyboard focus there (the
dotted outline) but doesn't actually click the button. When that happens I
have to press the space bar to activate the button. This happens throughout
the interface, so with the buttons in the sidebar as well as buttons in
dialogue boxes, etc.

Please give me some pointers on how to fix this.

Kind regards,
