Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: wacom-tools
I had initially not used the tablet when running Gutsy. Loaded Hardy
via the upgrade path. Then because of the Wacom problem and others,
downloaded Gutsy (7.10) and did a fresh install. Currently running
Gutsy (7.10).
Gutsy, clean install.
Connected Wacom tablet and rebooted.
Pen movement erratic on screen. No mouse movement. Tends to make right-button
events.
Uncommented lines in xorg.conf after "Uncomment if you have a wacom tablet" -
no change
dmesg|grep wacom reports....
[ 14.368000] usbcore: registered new interface driver wacom
[ 14.368000]
/build/buildd/linux-source-2.6.22-2.6.22/drivers/input/tablet/wacom_sys.c:
v1.46:USB Wacom Graphire and Wacom Intuos tablet driver
As in bug report #33777 and #66646, it doesn't appear to be an X problem
- /var/log/Xorg.0.log seems to be okay. I can attach a copy of the log
if you wish.
Hardy, install via the upgrade path.
Wacom tablet was connected during installation and subsequent reboots.
Would get system freezes shortly after logging in - in less than 5 minutes.
Disconnected tablet and freezes stopped. (Though there would be an occasional
freeze after the system had been up for awhile - don't know if this is a
related problem.)
Machine is a Sony Vaio VGN-A270P with 2 GB memory.
** Affects: wacom-tools (Ubuntu)
