So I tried your solution and I wasn't able to fix my issue.
So I went into the file itself (devicerc) - I found the Chinese Characters, as it looks in Gimps Input Devices, here is what I tried :
1. Removed Chinese Characters In the (devicerc.txt) file - saved the file - Loaded Gimp back up - Same issue, just got rid of Chinese Characters. (Obviously)
2. Saved the Tablet Settings - Made sure the "Save Input Devices on Exit" was un-checked - Exited Gimp.
3. Loaded Gimp back up & Gimp added the 'old' Tablet setting (w/ Chinese Characters) & had the version I edited out the Chinese characters below and Un-Highlighted.
4. I went back into the (devicerc) file, which keeps appending to the file w/ ea save from inside of Gimp, just pushing down the previous version, be it edited or not. I then deleted all but the Pointer Settings.. Reloaded Gimp, Gimp adds the OLD variation w/ Chinese Characters..
5. Edited the new Gimp Save, took out the Chinese Characters, looked for the setting 'Mode', in the file, then changed all the settings to 'Screen' - Saved the file Loaded Gimp back up. - Gimp Pushed down my edited version and added a newer version w/ Chinese Characters.
So at this point I went into the Tablet Files, which consisted of a few .xml files. I deleted ALL languages, I left in English. Saved and reloaded Gimp & my Tablet program..
I got the same results.. Chinese Tablet name(s) and all were Disabled, not set to Screen as I had just configured in Gimp before tweaking the Tablet Files.
Jumped back into my Tablet Files and replaced EVERYthing w/ a Chinese Character.. Nothing worked.
Last attempt :
Un-Installed EVERYTHING - Gimp - Tablet - I dug deep into windows looked for ANYthing remotely close to Gimp/Tablet and blasted them from the PC..
Re-Installed EVERYTHING - Gimp - Tablet - I'm back at Square 1.. So pretty much I'm at the point to where I can not do anything more on my end. I have sent the Tablet makers Veikk an Email, praying they will answer, as I've read they have a horrid Cust. Svs Dept. I did learn that Veikk IS a Chinese based company, which might explain the Chinese Character always being pushed into Gimp. I, for some reason, can not figure out how Veikk is pushing these characters, other than in a .dll, which im trying to break into now
This is an Example of what the (devicerc) file looks like inside & the Chinese Characters :
(GimpDeviceInfo "VEIKK Tabletഀ㪢ɴ Puckᔀ黫翺"
(name "VEIKK Tabletഀ㪢ɴ Puckᔀ黫翺")
I hope all this makes sense. maybe I'm expecting to much, I dunno but, I've loaded up other Photo/Drawing apps and Gimp is the only one to have issues with the Veikk a30 Tablet..
Sorry for the book..
