[Bug 786317] Re: wacom intuous3 often fails to draw stroke (release click not recognised?)

2011-06-08 Thread Christopher Small
Yeah, I'm having the same exact issue. I can also confirm that
deactivating the stylus does fix the "stickiness". I have not tried
running in Ubuntu classic without effects yet. I did however try turning
off various effects, but wasn't able to find one that restored the
correct behaviour (I didn't try all, admittedly though).

I have noticed that sometimes, the problem will go away after a while,
and it's hard to say what causes that.

2011-10-15 Thread Christopher Small
That is very disappointing to hear. I was really hoping that Ocelot would
magically squash this.

Does any one yet have a sense yet of what is underlying this problem? Is
there anyone out there familiar enough with Compiz, X, wacom drivers and
gimp to have a sense for what sort of things we might want to look into? Log
files that could be checked? Other bits of information that might be
gathered toward the end of diagnosing this issue?

Chris


Does anyone have any suggestions for things that could be looked into on
this front.

I have experienced it (as I believe others have) even when using Gnome with
effect ("Classic Ubuntu" vs "Classic Ubuntu (Without Effects)").

[Bug 786317] Re: wacom intuous3 often fails to draw stroke (release click not recognised?)

2011-10-24 Thread Christopher Small
I think we may have the first real interesting development on this just
now - http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1795819.

This person claims that just by changing the Toolbox window settings
(from having always show on top) the problem is fixed! Perhaps the way
in which focus and window stacking are handled with the updated Compiz
effects, the signals that should be getting sent to the main gimp window
are getting sent instead to the toolbar window. Does that seem like a
reasonable explanation?

Another discovery that I've had. I installed Gnome Shell on Ubuntu 11.10
and found that the tablet was working beautifully! At least, until I ran
my little wacomsettings script (which runs a bunch of xsetwacom
commands). Then the pressure response seemed to change, and the strokes
became more intermittent (though not quite as bad as they tended to be
with Unity). After rebooting back into Gnome Shell, things are working
beautifully again. I haven't yet either tried rerunning my wacomsettings
script (don't mess with what works, right?) or booting into Unity again
to play around with things there (I'm kind of having fun with all the
flexibility of Gnome Shell).

If I do and find anything interesting, I'll definitely share. Meanwhile,
it would be great to have some independent verification of this stuff.

Cheers

2011-10-24 Thread Christopher Small
This sounds like a totally different bug. You might want to find a ticket
that matches these problems or start a new one.

For what it's worth though, I have used Unity2D successfully with the
tablet, but I also didn't switch around any of the settings and was doing
that with the pre-release of Unity 2D on Natty. You might want to try
playing around with whatever window focus settings you changed, as well as
test out Classic Ubuntu (no effects) with and without those window settings.


I personally like Ocelot. Canonical's view is that by making their operating
system more modern in flavor, they are going to be able to attract a wider
user base, which I'm definitely for (promoting open source is kind of a life
mission). Naturally, there are going to be bumps along the way to such major
changes, but I'm confident that all will smooth out. In the mean time, I
definitely get excited by all the change, new features and such. For what
that's all worth...

Re: [Bug 786317] Re: wacom intuous3 often fails to draw stroke (release click not recognised?)

2011-10-24 Thread Christopher Small
Andrew - do you still experience the bug on Gnome (Ubuntu Classic) with
effects, or is it Gnome without effects that you have tried? The reason I
ask is that the effects that most people are experiencing here (with the
sticky brush strokes) are clearly tied to Compiz, which isn't used in Unity
2D, but is used in Classic Ubuntu (Gnome with effects). That's why I think
that the effects you are experiencing are a different bug, even if a related
one.

Have you tried Gnome Shell yet? I'm definitely interested in whether your
issue is cropping up there (and what you think of it in general). I'll
forewarn you that it isn't perfect for me yet. The interface gets "stuck"
every now and again and I have to hit Alt-F2, then "r", then enter to run
the reset command (as in, reset the Shell). For this to work though, you
have to activate the Alt-F2 shortcut, which for some reason is deactivated
by default (you can reactivate under Settings > Keyboard > Shortcuts).

[Bug 786317] Re: wacom intuous3 often fails to draw stroke (release click not recognised?)

2011-10-24 Thread Christopher Small
I did some more research and realized a few things.

Something I've failed to mention till now - I'm running 11.10 AND Gimp
GIMP 2.7.3 (a current snapshot of development towards 2.8). Although
there were definitely still issues (at least as I recall) with this
version of gimp before the Ubuntu upgrade, after playing around with
nearly all of the UIs on my computer, this combo seems to make things a
lot better, at least usable, even in 3D Unity.

I ran through Gnome Classic (with effects, though there weren't really
any actually enabled, so the test coverage could be improved upon here),
Unity 2D, Unity and Gnome Shell. Of these, I was only able to produce
issues with Unity 3D. And as I've discovered, even that seems to be much
better now; at least usable.

I opened a blank canvas and did rapid bunches of four strokes at a time
so that it would be easy to count misses. I had zero problems with any
configuration except for Unity 3D. I did 36 bunches, and only had a
total of 18 missed strokes. What is interesting is that once I hid the
toolbox (by pressing Tab - not sure if this functionality was present in
Gimp 2.6) the misses went down to 0 out of 60 bunches. Running my
wacomsettings script (with xsetwacom calls - see an earlier post of
mine) didn't seem to have any negative effect here. Once I brought the
toolbox back to the front, I experienced only one or two misses (out of
sixty bunches, if you can believe it). Not sure why the behavior didn't
come back as strongly, but it didn't. This is already a significant
improvement from the sticking-every-other-time behavior I was seeing a
while back. And I actually really like being able to hide the Toolbox
while I'm drawing (except when I have another screen I can let it sit
on), so that to me is a good workaround. And as I said, even with the
toolbox up, the bad behavior seems far less frequent now. So, I
definitely recommend everyone try out Gimp 2.7 to see what change in
behavior you get from it.

I think that my results definitely further support the hypothesis that
the Toolbox and window stacking is somehow part of the problem here.

A few more notes about my setup for the sake of thoroughness. I'm using
an Intuos 4 and the new Wacom Graphics Tablet GUI within System Settings
to set the Tracking mode to relative (which I kind of like, since it
doesn't skew the tablet strokes when I'm using multiple screens). I
played around with that a bit while testing out Classic Gnome, but it
didn't change anything. I should have tried it in Unity to see if that
made things better or worse (since that is the one component that was
actually having any issues for me). That is an area that could stand
more testing. If I get the time to, I'll definitely share my findings.
It might also be worth testing out the effects of changing parameters on
the mapping matrix a bit. I had angle mapped to tilt, color mapped to
pressure, and hardness to force. I had size mapped to velocity at one
point, and it seemed that I was getting a slightly higher rate of issues
there, but that was before embarking on my "bunches" testing (without
which, it's really hard to get a good sense for how bad things actually
are).

I'll also point out that whereas (as I mention in my earlier post) I did
experience some problems just after running my wacomsettings script in
Gnome Shell, I didn't this time around. That might have been a fluke.
I'll definitely keep an eye on that. At this point I intend to mostly
use Gnome Shell, even though it's a bit buggy still.

On a final note, I didn't see any of the problems which Andrew has
described, but obviously there are a lot of parameters to tweak between
our two setups where one might find issues.

Cheers

Chris

Re: [Bug 786317] Re: wacom intuous3 often fails to draw stroke (release click not recognised?)

2011-10-25 Thread Christopher Small
Gimp 2.7.3 has been great to me. It has some AWESOME new features,
especially for tablet users. Biggest on my list is a really amazing mapping
matrix. You can check mappings and draw out graphs outlining the interaction
between the effects. A lot of people are apparently pretty excited about the
single window mode (I could care less, but whatever). I was reluctant to
jump in on it, but I have had zero problems with it so far (and have been
using, at least here and there, for a couple months).

There is definitely quite a soup of technologies going around here. I'll try
to help clarify to the best of my understanding (someone correct me if I'm
wrong). Gnome is a desktop environment. Up till now, most distros have been
using Gnome 2. However, Gnome 3 is now in action, and there are some great
new features that come along with it. It has been designed to be more
flexible and modular, as well as modern (from a technical perspective).
Gnome Shell is a desktop environment built on top of Gnome 3 (it can be
thought of as a "shell" around it), and does so in order to bring a more
modern flavor/experience (think moving in the same general direction as
Unity, but along a different route). Unity too is now built on Gnome 3 (as
of Ocelot -- if I'm not mistaken). Ubuntu Classic was what came up when
trying to switch desktop versions to the non-unity Gnome when logging into
Ubuntu on 11.4. This interface is also called Gnome Panel, and is now
basically the fallback for Gnome when Gnome Shell cannot be loaded.

Both Metacity and Compiz are window managers. One of the most fundamental
distinctions is that Compiz is a compositing window manager, which basically
means that it can take advantage of graphics cards and such in order to
produce all kinds of effects quickly. Unity is effectively based on compiz.
Gnome did use Metacity by default, but now uses Mutter (built on Clutter)
for the Gnome Shell. I'm not sure if in Fallback/Panel mode it still uses
Metacity or not.

Bottom line - to install gnome shell and the classic gnome do the
following

sudo apt-get install gnome-shell
sudo apt-get install gnome-session-fallback

You should then have the Gnome Shell and Gnome Panel options when you click
the little gear on logging into Ubuntu.

Best

Chris

2011-10-27 Thread Christopher Small
Looking at matthaeus123's launchpad page, it looks like the 2.7.3 version is
still floating around. You just have to specify that version when you
apt-get install (after adding the ppa). The syntax is

sudo apt-get install package_name=package_version

So try specifying one of those 2.7.3 versions and see if that works for
you.


Cheers
