Wacom Bamboo and GIMP

March 27, 2009 - 02:28 — richardvogel

I am running vista with GIMP 2.6 and Wacom Bamboo. When I use the pen to draw/paint/etc. there are two cursors that move at different rates. One appears to do what it should via the pen and shows the brush outline shape, the other is a pointer with icon. When the icon one goes off canvas things get screwed up. Didn't have this problem with Photoshop or Corel? Any ideas?

wacom bamboo and gimp

I found this thread as I had the same problem: vista, gimp 2.6.7, wacom bamboo fun A6 size.
All the techie stuff about patches was above my head, tried this in gimp:

edit>preferences>Input Devices
then RESET

Resetting the input controllers didn't work for me but resetting input devices did, hope this helps anybody like myself who finds their way here, thanks for the help
