Re: [ubuntu-studio-users] Help configuring a wacom tabler on a dual monitor.
THANX A LOT! It worked perfectly. [quote] "NVIDIA binary driver Provided you have the latest git version, you can also use MapToOutput with the NVIDIA binary driver. In this case, the monitor must be specified with "HEAD-0", "HEAD-1", etc." [/quote] That was my problem, I tryed to MapToOutput with a different name (ie, the name of the monitor, VGA1) instead of the name nVidia gives them (HEAD-0...) I ended up with this script, that I can run every time I need to use the wacom: CODE: #!/bin/sh xsetwacom --set "Wacom Intuos S Pen stylus"MapToOutput HEAD-0 xsetwacom --set "Wacom Intuos S Pad pad" MapToOutput HEAD-0 xsetwacom --set "Wacom Intuos S Pen eraser"MapToOutput HEAD-0 ## Obviously, you'll need to find out the name of your wacom device with xinput list.

Re: [ubuntu-studio-users] Help configuring a wacom tabler on a dual monitor.
Hey, Mike, thanx for your reply. I'm using blender, and I need the nVidia drivers in order to use the GPU for rendering. I was also hoping I could use my dual screens and wacom tablet at the same time. So far I made a small script using xsetwacom, but it fails to recognize my monitor (DP-0). I'll try to map it to coordinates instead of a monitor. Thanx. Will send the solution (if I find it) for other user's sake.

[ubuntu-studio-users] Help configuring a wacom tabler on a dual monitor.
Hi there ubuntu Studio list! It's the first time I write the list. I need a little help setting up a wacom stylus tablet on a dual monitor setup, so the tablet is maped to one monitor only. I searched in the internet for ways of doing that, and I found that "If you use the NVIDIA binary driver, you'll need to manually set the coordinate mapping. " (source: http://linuxwacom.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Dual_and_Multi-Monitor_Setup ) Since I am using the nVidia drivers, I need to "manualy set the coordinates", which I have no idea how to. I found some how to's in the net, but I don't know if the coordinates are universal, or if I have to find out how my monitors are setup to map it. I apreciate any help with this. Thanks in advance.
