I think i have a little more light to shine on this...
I don't believe it is the driver module... or if it is, i should be able
to get around it. Most testing programs show that it is in fact getting
readings between -128 and 127, just like it's supposed to... but a check
using 'xinput test Stylus' shows that the pressure sensitive part of it
has a min of 0 and a max of -1... i do believe it's not getting the right
pressure settings...
Is there any way to over-ride these in XF86Config?
Thanks
