Wacom Tablet Woes: Part One, Old Attempts to Fix the Problem
Sunday, May 16th, 2010Wacom Tablet – Shaky, Shaking, Wobbly, Jittery, Jitters, Parkinsons, the mouse cursor shakes.
Sunday, December 20th, 2009EDIT MAY 17, 2010:
I added a new test environment for Linux down there. After doing this, it appears that it’s the HARDWARE causing the problem. Ubuntu 10.04 is not likely using the same Wacom drivers as Windows. So, I’m going to test rebooting without the other monitors connected and update this post in a bit.
EDIT: June 16th, 2010
ASUS gave me a replacement motherboard for the problem.. but the problem still exists. So I’m running out of things to consider… The Power Supply? I think someone else’s post about the power supply could be right..
I’ll keep everyone updated about the replacement Power Supply I’ll be getting.
If you’re ANYTHING like me, you are FRUSTRATED (to say the least) if your cursor shakes when using the Wacom Tablet pen.
So, I decided that it’d be best if I had an extensive index of EVERYTHING I’ve tried to do to get mine to work.
My Symptoms:
WACOM INTUOUS 3
While hovering the pen above the tablet pad, the cursor shakes WILDLY. While hovering the pen just above the surface (and resting my hand on the pad), my hand does not shake but the cursor does.
The same happens for the Wacom Mouse.
Placing my pen right at the surface causes the tablet pen to do anything from waver about once per second to five times per second.
The biggest symptom: drawing a diagonal line creates an obviously wavy line. (This is different from a naturally curvy line that would be created from your hand movement.)
This has happened between two different PCs, so I am the definition of frustrated.
