Weird issue. I remember when I got this tablet touch worked out of box, I could scroll, "click" and so on. Now none of these work, only the cursor moves as I move my finger.

I was trying in various programs and the desktop itself, and nothing. For a bit, I could make two finger tap work for clicking on things on the taskbar and switch windows, like 1 times out of 5 then that stopped working too completely.

I used to have touch disabled from the kcm-wacomtablet (KDE 5 version) module, then also via the little switch on the tablet, now I enabled both back, so that's why I can move the cursor at all.

Google found only some old threads with the same symptoms but there it was caused by the kde-config-table package which I do not even have installed.

EDIT: Not sure if relevant, but every time I turn the touch switch on the tablet on for the first time, X crashes instantly. This wasn't the case back then when touch worked. After that, as I login again, I can toggle it back and forth, no more crashes until I restart the computer.

bump

Sorry, no idea. Sounds like a general, not a krita specific problem and I don't have the hardware and I don't have arch.

Yes, it's system wide, not only in Krita, and I was actually meaning to post this in some general KDE area, no idea how it ended up in Krita help.

Could someone please move it to somewhere more appropriate? Nut sure where to put it tho...

I have the Intuos which used to be bamboo and it started acting up today on this and clip studio so I am thinking maybe I need to check and see if the tablet drivers are okay.

That's what I have too.

But I'm on Linux so it's unlikely the drivers broke, unless it's a bug in them.
