Author	Topic: problems with Wacom tablet and display
SeanFlannery Member	posted 06 March 2013 16:25 Hi SSC, A while ago I got a second monitor for the PC I run Kyma on and I immediately ran into an issue I was unable to resolve: The (Intuous 4) tablet works fine until I launch Kyma, midway into Kyma starting up the tablet seems to freeze. What happens is the tablet stops working when the surface is mapped over the two screens. When I use the display toggle on the tablet I can switch from screen to screen or simply use the mouse which works fine but I have an RSI and I need the tablet for ergonomic reasons. This issue only happens when Kyma is running, once I quit Kyma the tablet works across both screens again. I posted about this a while (circa 18-24 mths) ago but at the time I was very busy with work so I just let it slide. I put it down to the fact that I was running two 24" monitors off a card that wasn't really up to the job. A few weeks ago I upgraded the card to something actually designed for twin head operation (as opposed to just having two kinds of output a Matrox PCIe P690 and the problem persists. Hope you can help. thanks, Sean IP: Logged
SeanFlannery Member	posted 06 March 2013 16:53 I should add a second problem after install of the new video card - poor screen redraw in Kyma when any window was moved or displayed over another, making the app really difficult to use - was observed and resolved by setting Enable Graphics Acceleration in Misc Preferences to "No". Kind of counter intuitive but it worked IP: Logged
