 Is there a particular commit in 3.6 that fixes it?

how embarassing. for some reason I didn't see the remainder of this 
thread yesterday and though this was still an unsolved issue. Thanks for 
explaining it (and of course for fixing the issue in the first place :)

Cheers,

 Hi Jonas,

 I had the same problem. my tablet's product id is 0094 before I know,
 and Tablet not working.

 So, I built linux kernel 3.6-rc1 and boot it, then the problem is resolved.
 Please don't do "reboot", do power off ( "shutdown" ) and next do power on.
 Now I can use stylus, eraser, and touch. tablet's product id is 00E6.

You won't get anything fixed by Lenovo. The issue you see only happens
with kernel 3.5. There was a bug in 3.5.3 [1] that was introduced by
not applying all patches I submitted. It stayed in 3.5.4 until I
brought the fix to GregKH. The fix got in 3.5.5 [2].

The root cause is somewhere in the kernel tablet is set to a wrong
mode. Once it is in that mode, a reboot won't reset it to normal. We
have to power it off and wait a few seconds for all bits to reset.
That's why I tell people to even unplug the power cable since bits may
stay as long as they get power.

If you do not run kernel 3.5.3 or 3.5.4, you won't see this issue any more.

At the moment it's working stable, i haven't had the usbid change for a
few weeks. Do you think I should contact Lenovo to have it fixed before
warranty ends?
