Johan (johan-bluecreek) wrote : Compositing conflicting with tablet features

Not having compositing activated, ubuntu or xubuntu, the tablet features (i.e. pen) works out of the box. Activating compositing, pen still works. X restarts, having compositing activated, pen stops working. With stops working, I mean the pointer falls into the right lower corner independently of where I use the pen.

I can deactivate compositing, restart X, then the pen works again. Temporary solution is to deactivate compositing on logout, and reactivate it on log in to have full tablet support.
