Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-wacom

I have an hp tc4400 tablet pc. If I rotate the screen (to read/annotate
some text) and then suspend and resume again, I get an offset if
approximately 5cm between the position of the stylus and the point where
the cursor appears. I would expect the two positions to match like they
do before the suspend. It does not help to rotate back to the normal
mode before suspending. To be able to use the stylus again I have to re-
start X. My impression is that a similar problem has been around for
some time, but that it used to be more erratic. It now seems consistent.

To rotate the screen I use this script:

#/bin/bash
xrandr -o right
xsetwacom set stylus rotate cw
xsetwacom set cursor rotate cw
xsetwacom set eraser rotate cw

(to rotate back I replace "right" and "cw" by 0)

I'd be grateful for any fix or workaround!

  Thanks,
    Klas
