Public bug reported: Using a stylus with an HP tm2 tablet and kde. The MouseRelease/PenRelease event is missing when the pen is removed from the screen. Stylus movement is registered, stylus presses are registered, but not the release. A significant portion of the UI only responds upon release so this missing event makes it impossible to use the pen. e.g. pressing a button will change it's state registering the press, but it will never trigger an action (which happens on the release).
Problem is present across all applications and desktop. This problem is not present with FVWM so it's a KDE issue.
