OK, for the problem describe above I have reproduce and will submit a patch soon. As you said, the stylus buttons should be a different problem. For those interested, it should only be an issue with the MT Bamboo driver (kernel 2.6.37 for example). I would expect the older "Protocol 4" Bamboo driver in linuxwacom to have pad buttons work while touch is disabled.
