Rantings, mostly…

Well, let me be more specific.  The GTK+ packages seem to be at fault for both GIMP and Inkscape.  Of course, any other GTK+ based application will also fail.

For some reason the stylus seems to pass more information to the application, primarily the GTK+ engine than what it can handle.

I’ve tried the stylus support in Photoshop, ArtRage, and Artweaver and all of them give superior support.

Which is saddening because I absolutely love Inkscape as a vector program.  GIMP as my main raster program.  Now it looks like I am going to have to find another vector program, and *shudder* possibly have to stick with Photoshop.

How the hell can Linux be getting this *totally* right?  Is it an updated GTK+ or a combination of superior coding skills and an updated GTK+ package?

Hell if I know, but I sure wish someone would figure it the hell out.
