UI doesn't respond

[tony_a]

Hi,

I'm running Linux mint 20 and I've just installed OBS 26.0.2 using the ubuntu instructions here: https://obsproject.com/wiki/install-instructions#ubuntu-installation

Everything seems to have installed fine but when I run OBS studio, the UI doesn't respond at all. My mouse and keyboard seem to have no effect.

This is the print out from my terminal:

Anyone got any ideas how I can get the UI to respond?

Cheers,

After a bit more investigation, the issue actually seems to be that it has a problem with my wacom intuos tablet which I use as my mouse. If I plug in a traditional mouse, it responds fine.
