XWayland 24.1.10 broke Wacom input in Nuke/Mari/Houdini (fixed by downgrade)

Hi everyone,

After updating Fedora 43, Wacom tablet input stopped working inside Nuke, Mari, Houdini while using a GNOME Wayland session.

Tablet:

  • Wacom Intuos Pro S (PTH-451)

The tablet is still detected correctly by the system:

  • lsusb detects the device
  • libinput list-devices shows Pen / Pad / Finger normally

However, stylus input inside Nuke and Mari stopped working after updating to:

xorg-x11-server-Xwayland-24.1.10-1.fc43

I downgraded with:

sudo dnf downgrade xorg-x11-server-Xwayland

which restored:

24.1.8-2.fc43

After rebooting, tablet input worked normally again in both applications.

Has anyone else seen this regression with tablets or XWayland apps?

System info:

  • Fedora 43
  • GNOME 49
  • Wayland session
  • Kernel: 6.19.13-200.fc43.x86_64
  • GPU: NVIDIA RTX 4090
  • Tablet: Wacom Intuos Pro S

Thanks for the suggestion. I tested xorg-x11-server-Xwayland-24.1.11-1.fc43.x86_64
here on Fedora 43 and the Wacom tablet issue is fixed now. Nuke, Houdini and Mari are working normally again. Really appreciate the quick help.
