Local Tablet Driver¶

In some networks users may notice a visible lag between the movement of the tablet stylus and the movement of the cursor. Using the local tablet driver feature in the Remote Workstation Card Software helps improve the user experience by reducing the effects of latency in some networks where network latency exceeds 40-60 ms. To activate this feature, check the Enable Local Tablet Driver located on the PCoIP Remote Workstation Card Software Features tab. Support for some Wacom models may require a minimum firmware version be loaded on the Zero Client.

When the Enable Local Tablet Driver feature is enabled, there are different tablet behaviors depending on whether there is an established PCoIP session or whether you are using the tablet just before entering a PCoIP session.

• In-session
  When enabled, supported tablets have full Wacom driver feature support while in-session.

• Pre-session
  When enabled or disabled, supported tablets in pre-session have cursor movement and single selection functionality.

• Newly Released Tablets
  Newer tablets may require tablet drivers not yet installed in the Linux kernel of your host workstation. To install the latest Wacom tablet drivers, visit Wacom's installation article for links to the latest Wacom kernel drivers and for installation instructions. The latest drivers can also provide fixes to issues and support for new models.
