Bug Fixes
- BZ#734256
- Prior to this update, the xorg-x11-drv-wacom driver allowed users only to use a pointer-focusing model. As a consequence, a dual-monitor layout on certain hardware could lead to an offset between the pen position and the cursor position. This update modifies the mapping offset in screen mode to provide new multi-screen handling.
- BZ#802385
- Prior to this update, xorg-x11-drv-wacom driver could, under certain circumstances, encounter an "off by one" error in the array access of files and a null dereference. This update modifies the array indexing and checks for the right allocation before dereferencing.
