Trouble with Xsetwacom and Wacom Intuos S on Linux Mint

[ReaderGuy42]

I just got a Wacom Intuos S and set up a script to rotate the pen 90 degrees counter clockwise. that worked, but then I must have messed something up while playing around with the program kde-tablet-config. I've since uninstalled this last program, but it's still not back to the way it was.

I'm having trouble with the rotation.

I remember yesterday I was having trouble with this too, but then I figured out that I had to rotate the pen and not the tablet, and got it worked out. But somehow I'm still getting Property 'Wacom Rotation' does not exist on device. when I run that on the pen.

This is (part of) the xinput output:

⎡ Virtual core pointer                      id=2    [master pointer  (3)]
   ↳ Wacom Intuos S Pad                         id=17   [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎜   ↳ Wacom Intuos S Pen Pen (0x278039db)       id=19   [slave  pointer  (2)]
⎣ Virtual core keyboard                     id=3    [master keyboard (2)]
...
    ↳ Wacom Intuos S Pen                        id=18   [slave  keyboard (3)]

The number after Pen Pen wasn't there yesterday, but I've tried running xsetwacom set "Wacom Intuos S Pen Pen (0x278039db)" Rotate ccw but it tells me the rotation doesn't exist. It worked yesterday.

Any advice? Thanks!

OK, so I think I got it working again. 1) ChatGPT (I know first mistake, but I was impatient) told me to delete /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/70-wacom.conf which resulted in the system not correctly recognizing the tablet and pen. Luckily I hadn't deleted the conf file, just moved it, so I moved it back and now that worked. 2) the tablet buttons can't seem to output the Super key. I noticed this by pressing the button in Linux Mint's hotkey field, so I saw what it was actually outputting. That's why it wasn't triggering the script I wanted it to.

Thanks!
