Thanks! It looks like everything worked, although I'll have to check the next time the kernel updates.

Hello all,
Ive purchased a wacom intuois5 touch and am using Linux Mint 14.
Favux, could please give me a hand with configuring the tablet buttons? The one along the side and the ring?
Everything works great except that.
Im just a little confused on what parts of your guide I need to follow.
I appreciate any help on this.
Hi atmycrossroads,
Welcome to Ubuntu forums!
The Intuos4 sample script should help along with part IV. "IV. Use of a xsetwacom script file". Also the wiki: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawik..._Configuration
You might want to take a look at the new BambooPT HOW TO. Using the GNOME Wacom tablet app. is another option. The Mint dev.s hid it in 14 but we found it: http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopi...f=208&t=117690
Thanks Favux,
checking the links you provided got half my buttons working.
If the pad is held so that the buttons are on the left the scripts managed to get the top five, the ring and center buttons working just fine but the bottom five buttons dont appear to be working at all.
Are you familiar enough with an Intuous5 Touch to tell me what the numbers are for the bottom five buttons?
Or is there a command I can use to find them?
No, but I'm interested in finding out. As far as I know there is just the usual 4 offset, so:Are you familiar enough with an Intuous5 Touch to tell me what the numbers are for the bottom five buttons?
Central button = 1
2
3
8
9
10
11
12
13
14
15
Otherwise you have to search the button numbers with xsetwacom get and set commands to find the button number that corresponds to the button in question.
Favux,
Thanks so much for your help, with the project as a whole and myself. Seriously appreciated.
I have 2 more questions and then I will try my best to not bother you further.
1. Do you know if the Intuois5 is actually supported fully now? I ask because in Linux Mint the default wacom config gui under Input Devices doesnt really recognize my I5 fully. It lists it as a generic tablet (waltrop) or something like that. Googling waltrop tells me that my Intuois is NOT a generic Waltrop device. (as a note to a previous suggestion..I do not have the gnome version of the control panel at all...unless its hidden in a location other than that specified on the Mint forums.) I sadly didnt notice this at first. I only noticed it when the pad buttons werent displaying in the gui at all.
2. Contingent on your answer being yes to my first question do you know if the drivers support toggling multiple configs for the center button and ring?
Thank you for any assistance.
Well the link I gave you above goes to a thread which shows you how to unhide the Wacom panel applet. Unless you are using KDE Mint and the KDE Wacom system tool?
Correct. Im sorry I thought I mentioned I was using Mint 14.
Yes the kde wacom panal is present in the Input devices window.
It is the gui I mentioned that isnt properly recognizing my pad.
For older versions of the KDE Wacom configuration gui like in Mint 14 the database file hasn't been added. You'll have to do it manually. bent95kr contacted the KDE Wacom dev.s and posted the database file with instructions: http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=125296
It looks like they're switching from their own tablet database to libwacom.
