Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 6.8.2.dfsg.1-4
Severity: normal
The aiptek input driver is affected by a known bug that is capable to
freeze gtk applications.
Some gtk applications, as gimp, thinks the tablet is still in use and
doesn't give back control to mouse.
I suggest you to look at this link:
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detailaid=1117415group_id=75377atid=543737
The cvs release of this driver probably isn't affected by this bug and
it also fix xserver's crashes which occurs when the user switch to a virtual
terminal.
Please consider to test it in the next release.
Greetings.
