RE: Wacom tablet with Gimp?

Pat,

Every WACOM tablet I have ever purchased has worked very well with GIMP. That includes Windows and Linux.
In some cases, GIMP input settings may need to be properly adjusted by selecting:

Edit > Preferences > Input Devices > Configure Extended input Devices > Mode > [Disable] or [Screen] or [Window]

It's possible to have more than one input device enabled and confuse GIMP.
Careful selection of settings will determine failure or success.

Even more challenging is to configure Krita. Depending on computer graphics capability, it may appear the graphics tablet is to blame when in fact the graphics driver settings are the culprit.
