Re: POINTER_MOTION_HINT_MASK causing problems with graphics tablet

[Nicholas Bishop <nicholasbishop gmail com>]

Actually, it seems there is a way to switch it. I found this comment
in the GIMP:

/*  don't request motion hins for XInput devices because
 *  the wacom driver is known to report crappy hints
 *  (#6901) --mitch
 */

And here's the referenced bug: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6901

I've made the same changes in my code, and it seems to work. However,
I still don't think this is a good solution; I'd like to know why the
problem hasn't been fixed in the "crappy" wacom driver.
