| OvenWerks | Eickmeyer[m]: sorry about the upload and build, I needed to be able to install on my son's computer to test it out... | 00:57 |
|---|---|---|
| Eickmeyer[m] | OvenWerks: No worries. | 00:57 |
| OvenWerks | Eickmeyer[m] @azbulutlu: working on tablet stuff for -controls. Want to check my thinking... or lack there of ;) | 01:20 |
| OvenWerks | Right now I populate the gui from what the tablet is now arther than what the config file says. | 01:21 |
| OvenWerks | My thinking is that, everything working right, the device should be the same as the config file anyway. | 01:22 |
| OvenWerks | That is it should have been set at session start. | 01:22 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | OvenWerks: I don't really have a wacom tablet to check it against, so we'd have to leave that to @azbulutlu. | 01:32 |
| OvenWerks | Eickmeyer[m]: yes she has more than one. That makes her a good person to ask. | 01:32 |
| OvenWerks | I have one (well my son does) | 01:32 |
| OvenWerks | So everything I can test is based on that. | 01:33 |
| OvenWerks | I also have the idea that someone with more than one would probably like all of them to get set at boot and not just one. | 01:33 |
| OvenWerks | Or they would like whichever one is connected to get set... it may be that because of a different arangement of buttons they would want different setting for each tablet | 01:35 |
| OvenWerks | All of this means saving values for all the possible tablets a user owns and checking at session start which ones are actually plugged in and set all of those. | 01:36 |
| studiobot | <azbulutlu> I think it needs to happen when tablet is connected? | 06:20 |
| studiobot | <azbulutlu> it is a good idea to check if there is a tablet on session start but people will plug in and out tablets all the time. and it is not uncommon to have multiple | 06:21 |
| studiobot | <azbulutlu> think usb microphones as anology | 06:22 |
| studiobot | <azbulutlu> ovenwerks | 06:22 |
| studiobot | <azbulutlu> I do need to run but I'll type more later today | 06:22 |
| studiobot | <azbulutlu> (Voice, 0s) http://studiobot.ericheickmeyer.com:9090/bkeZovGi/file_80.oga | 11:23 |
| OvenWerks | @azbulutlu: So that means we need to keep a data base of drawing surfaces the user owns, if they are plugged in or not... I think. | 16:45 |
| OvenWerks | @azbulutlu: this is not like usb audio at all maybe. | 16:45 |
| OvenWerks | The buttons on pads, are they always arranged the same way? | 16:46 |
| OvenWerks | @azbulutlu: wrong question... would button 1 always need to be set the same way for the same application even on different pads? | 16:46 |
| OvenWerks | @azbulutlu: would I be able to just hit each pad as plugged in with the same configuration? | 16:48 |
| OvenWerks | Eickmeyer[m]: we may have a problem -controls if not run by the installing user. | 16:53 |
| OvenWerks | Eickmeyer[m]: nope scratch that, it's fine | 17:00 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | OvenWerks: I was about to say that doesn't make sense, but if we're OK then we're OK. :D | 17:00 |
| OvenWerks | @azbulutlu: I know, talking to myself... but farther thought would indicate that much of my work to display the device was wasted :P | 17:01 |
| OvenWerks | @azbulutlu: The device doesn't matter so long as I can get a list of devices for setting up and detect as they are plugged in. | 17:02 |
| OvenWerks | Eickmeyer[m]: next problem... maybe is that I may need to compare any usb device that gets plugged in against a known list of tablets. | 17:05 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | OvenWerks: Perhaps, but that's going to be a gigantic list, and might be overkill. | 17:06 |
| OvenWerks | Eickmeyer[m]: it is strange, lsusb on our tablet jsut shows a serial number no description, but dmesg does show pad and stylus | 17:16 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | OvenWerks: Gotta love inconsistency. /s | 17:17 |
| * OvenWerks wonders if there is a command to xorg that makes it reread a config file | 17:23 | |
| studiobot | <teward001> `sudo shutdown -r now `*shot* | 17:54 |
| studiobot | <teward001> :P | 17:54 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | @teward001 You may proceed to alt-F4. | 18:17 |
| Eickmeyer[m] | shot | 18:17 |
| studiobot | <teward001> :P | 18:39 |
