Lost pressure in 2.7

I recently upgraded to Gimp 2.7 from 2.6.x and I now find that I don't have pressure sensitivity in it anymore. There's no "Pressure Sensitivity" dropdown menu in the tools. I think it is enabled in Input Devices, however my setup screen doesnt look like any of the examples I find on the net where you got a dropdown-list where you can select "stylus". Mine is just all devices in a long table to the left. All pen related stuff is set to "screen" and I've tried to individually enable them one by one. Nothing is working.

I do have pen pressure in other apps like Xournal and Anime Studio. However I can't get it to work in Inkscape either.

I did upgrade my system from Ubuntu 9.04 to 10.04 some month or two ago and I can't recall that I've used any pressure sensitive since that so it is possible that it didn't work in Gimp 2.6 either after that upgrade.

Ubuntu 10.04, 64-bit on a FujitsuSiemens T5010 tablet pc.

I downgraded to 2.6.8 and now I got pressure sensitivity again.

Did you check in the extended input device configuration that the Bamboo stylus is set to screen or window? I seem to remember that I lost pressure sensitivity and it was set to disabled and that caused it to be treated like a mouse with no sensitivity. Setting it back to Screen (which I like), fixed the problem.
