Continuing my research I came across something very interesting from a contributor to http://forum.meetthegimp.org/index.php in response to my wish to have a button for shift and one for Ctrl. The author, who uses openSUSE 10.3 thought the following code, to be entered into xinitrc, would work in Ubuntu.
# Define the Bamboo buttons # if [ -x /usr/local/bin/xsetwacom ]; then /usr/local/bin/xsetwacom set Pad AbsWDn "Button 5" /usr/local/bin/xsetwacom set Pad AbsWUp "Button 4" /usr/local/bin/xsetwacom set Pad Button1 "Button 1" /usr/local/bin/xsetwacom set Pad Button2 "CORE KEY SHIFT" /usr/local/bin/xsetwacom set Pad Button3 "Button 3" /usr/local/bin/xsetwacom set Pad Button4 "CORE KEY CTRL" /usr/local/bin/xsetwacom set Stylus TPCButton "off" /usr/local/bin/xsetwacom set Stylus mode "Absolute" /usr/local/bin/xsetwacom set Stylus Button1 "Button 1" /usr/local/bin/xsetwacom set Stylus Button2 "Button 3" /usr/local/bin/xsetwacom set Stylus Button3 "Button 2" fi I checked and found that, in Ubuntu 9.04, we have xinitrc but not xsetwacom. I presume there must be the equivalent to wsetwacom somewhere and probably not in /usr/local/bin. I would be grateful for comments from anyone who understands this code and how it would need to be modified to work in Ubuntu 9.04.
