Wacom Pro Not Recognized on CentOS 7

[brandonrab]

I'm running CentOS Linux release 7.5.1804 in my studio, the artists like MATE so this project is a huge help for us. We recently upgraded to Intuos Pro tablets and its recognized by X as "Intuos Pro M" instead of "Intuos Pro".

I edited wacom_data.py to

 # PTH-660/PTH-860 hack
            if dev_type == 'Wacom Intuos Pro M':

as a workaround. Not sure if other builds are affected by this issue

You can actually just cut the hack out entirely. There is an issue with the older build of libwacom .tablet files where the PTH-660/860 were incorrectly reporting the tablet as "Intuos Pro 2 M" vs "Intuos Pro M" compared to the output from the wacom driver. The patch has been pushed to libwacom-data but if you are just doing a copy of my repo vs using the RPM on 7.5 there will be the mismatch. I've been a little busy for the past couple months so I have not got around to updating the package. I hope to do this in the next couple weeks after completing a network upgrade.

If you don't mind, I would be curious to know what studio you are at as I have heard quite a few are but only know a couple by name.

I installed wacom-gui from the RPM - v0.3.0-rc17 and we have libwacom-data-0.30-1.el7 - do you know what version of libwacom-data has the patch?

I just did a diff between your copy of intuos-pro-2-m.tablet and the one in the CentOS repo and they are the same.

Emailing you off the github thread with studio info https://github.com/tb2097/wacom-gui/tree/v0.3.0-rc17

The change was made in libwacom-data-0.33. If you look at intuos-pro-2-m.tablet it should be listing the name as 'Wacom Intuos Pro 2 M', were as xsetwacom would be reporting it as 'Wacom Intuos Pro M'. If not, I'm unsure why the hack isn't what is working for you... Regardless, I'll get a patched version up with the updated libwacom-data probably next week if I can.
