Wacom Bamboo buttons

hello,

I use Wacom Bamboo on Arch Linux,
I just checked /etc/X11/ and looks like xorg.conf is gone, instead there is:

10-evdev.conf      10-quirks.conf     10-synaptics.conf  50-joystick.conf   50-vmmouse.conf 

but it's just default stuff, and no wacom is there

but tablet works correctly, with one exception, I can't configure tablet buttons in Gimp

what is your Wacom configuration? are you using default one as me?

there is a huge article about Wacom on wiki, but it seams quite outdated, there are also threads on forum, but people discuss how to load module or how to set xorg.conf, but as you can see it works by default.... just want to know how to enable buttons

Re: Wacom Bamboo buttons

I haven't used a tablet in a while (I only once borrowed a bamboo), but I think I needed the wacom-drivers package from AUR to get the Bamboo working completely.
Anyway, here is the 50-wacom.conf in my /etc/X11/xorg.conf,d - I think it's just the default one from the wacom-drivers package.

Section "InputClass"
        Identifier "Wacom class"
        MatchProduct "Wacom|WACOM|WALTOP|Hanwang"
        MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
        Driver "wacom"
EndSection

Section "InputClass"
        Identifier "Wacom serial class"
        MatchProduct "Serial Wacom Tablet"
        Driver "wacom"
EndSection

Section "InputClass"
        Identifier "Wacom serial class identifiers"
        MatchProduct "WACf|FUJ02e5|FUJ02e7|FUJ02e9"
        Driver "wacom"
EndSection


# N-Trig Duosense Electromagnetic Digitizer
Section "InputClass"
        Identifier "Wacom N-Trig class"
        MatchProduct "HID 1b96:0001|N-Trig Pen"
        MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
        Driver "wacom"
        Option "Button2" "3"
EndSection
