Calibration from a single terminal.
Re: Calibration from a single terminal.
This really should be a sticky!
CF-29LTQ,CF-31SBM,CF-52youngGUN,
Life's Journey is not to arrive safely at the grave in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways totally worn-out shouting 'Woo Hoo! What a ride!
Motorsports - the only real sport. If it doesn't have a motor, it is just a game.
There is always something waiting at the end of the road, if you are not willing to see what it is, you probably shouldn't be out there in the first place.

Re: Calibration from a single terminal.
This CF-19 MK4 fell out of the sky and into my lap. It's a dual touch. Anybody here manage to calibrate the pen and touch devices?
Code: Select all
root@cf-19:/home/commander# xinput_calibrator --list
Device "Wacom ISDv4 93 Pen stylus" id=9
Device "Wacom ISDv4 93 Finger touch" id=10
Device "Wacom ISDv4 93 Pen eraser" id=15
Daily drives a CF-31

Re: Calibration from a single terminal.
Apparently you don't use xinput_calibrator but xsetwacom. That also means that putting values in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/<file> doesn't do anything. I think there's a way to issue the xsetwacom command with the proper parameters each time you boot the machine by creating a file in /etc/Xsession.d. I'll figure this out soon.

No, just my nuts. Don't worry, it landed softly.Shawn wrote:At least it did not fall onto your head..
So here's the deal. The stylus seems to use absolute coordinates so it doesn't need to be calibrated? I may be wrong on this one.
It's the finger touch aspect that needed tweaking in my case. The problem is, this took several tries to get the right values and I don't know why.
Run xinput_calibrator --list to figure out what is the device name for the touch device.
Code: Select all
root@cf-19:/home/commander# xinput_calibrator --list
Device "Wacom ISDv4 93 Pen stylus" id=9
Device "Wacom ISDv4 93 Finger touch" id=10
Device "Wacom ISDv4 93 Pen eraser" id=15
Code: Select all
sudo xinput_calibrator --device 10
Code: Select all
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "calibration"
MatchProduct "!!Name_Of_TouchScreen!!"
Option "MinX" "207"
Option "MaxX" "4008"
Option "MinY" "17"
Option "MaxY" "3800"
Option "SwapXY" .etc..... irrelevant stuff
Code: Select all
xsetwacom --set 10 Area 207 17 4008 3800
Now you should be calibrated if xinput_calibrator didn't screw up and gave you wrong numbers. Otherwise try again before making the changes permanent.
And to make it permanent, put the above command in a text file and dump it in /etc/X11/Xsession.d . I created a file 10-wacom (use your favourite text editor) as sudo or root and saved it in the Xsession.d directory. It should only contain the xsetwacom command with your Area values like the one above. As usual, preface the command with sudo or run as root with nano, pico or whatever text editor you use. Personally I use vi out of habit.
Code: Select all
sudo nano /etc/X11/Xsession.d/10-wacom

Re: Calibration from a single terminal.
The digitizers do not need calibrated. The touchpanels do.
The wacom thingy is for the touchpanel??
Very odd as the touchpanel is probably a Fujitsu unit and the digitizer is made by wacom

Re: Calibration from a single terminal.
Just as xinput_calibrator --list indicated, this particular MK4 is all Wacom.

Not having any luck finding out how to do right-click long press emulation with xsetwacom.
