Hi,
I remember having this issue before a long while back during the alpha/beta stage of H9 on XP. Unfortunately, it seems to be back again. I am on Vista64 this time around.
My Wacom Intous2 driver installed is the latest stable release. H9.0.748. Vista is all updated.
I noticed that with every subsequence launching, H9 will cause the mouse pointer to have a delayed response when using Wacom tablet. When I get the pen near the tablet, there's about 1/25-1/2 sec. delay after about 4th or 5th time launching Houdini. Closing Houdini doesn't not fix this. Only reboot does. I don't recall H8 to ever cause this. Same problem as it was several months ago.
Thanks.

Hi,
Can anyone here please verify that this is only me who's having this issue?
I just tested it on build 755. After opening/closing Houdini for about 20 times, my mouse pointer would takes about 1.25 seconds to response whenever I hover the pen on the tablet itself.
My intous2 driver is 6.04-4 for Vista64. I set HOUDINI_ENABLE_LINUX_TABLET to 0, and that doesn't seems to be doing anything for me so far.
Don't know what else to do. Having to rebooting OS after every 5-10 uses of Houdini sucked unless I decide to switch back to the old school mouse.
Much thanks.

Heya Alex,
I've been experiencing the same symptoms. Gradually, over the course of a day the lag between putting pen-to-tablet and the cursor moving gets longer and longer.
It's annoying.
I did find a reboot free short term remedy, open up the services panel, and stop-start that Tablet service.
Hope this helps,
G

Hi Gene,
Thanks so much for checking it for me to confirm that I hadn't gone nut. I completely forgot about the tablet service. Will try that next time to see if that will remedy the issue. Anything not having to reboot would be more preferable, I think. (Not having this issue would be best)
Thanks again!

Restarting TabletService worked. Thanks.
The other REALLY interesting thing I am finding out is that (in my case at least) I don't even have to constantly closing/relaunching Houdini to get this mouse pointer delay. ** I just keep Houdini open, play with it, come back like half hour later, the mouse response time was literally about 2-3 seconds until I restart TabletService again. **
Although I wondered what will happen if I leave Houdini running over night.
EDIT:
** Erm.. I'll have to 2x and 3x check that statement as I can't seem replicate it now.
