Thanks for the tip. Should have mentioned that the pen works fine in Windows. I did try switching modes, to no avail. AIUI, the mode compatibility issue is downstream from the fact that I can't even get the Bluetooth connection. The Ink and Ink Plus both have the mode switch, but only the Ink Plus uses Bluetooth. -- Matthew Saltzman School of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences Clemson University mjs AT clemson DOT edu _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
