I do recall there was one other issue where any X application that started up when X was configured for a tablet but a tablet was not plugged in caused warnings (usually three) to be emitted to the console. I think this was back around dapper, or so. There were a great deal of false bug reports about that.
While auto-detection is ideal for most (if not all) hardware, I suspect doing it "correctly" for wacom tablets in such a way that it doesn't negatively affect users who have never heard of a tablet, let alone seen one, will take some time and work. I suspect that some restructuring of both the driver and the X input infrastructure would be required. Anyway, to answer your question, good locations to start would probably be in Launchpad Questions, or in a separate bug report, depending on your level of knowledge and expertise. -- [intrepid] Wacom Xorg module is incompatible with the kernel module shipped in kernel packages. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/260675 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
