Alexia,

Thank you for taking the time to explain the situation clearly.

I'm relieved to know that the new HAL settings apply to devices that are
added and removed after booting the computer. My Wacom is permanently
attached, so I guess I can safely side step the HAL issues.

Whoever is making documentation might do well to make this clear so that
newbies like myself don't panic. I thought a new, less functional,
regime that I could not avoid was being imposed on me.

As far as fixing it goes...

To make a long story short, instead of editing my xorg.conf to try and
figure out what settings should be commented out and which ones
included, I simply restored a backed up version from about three months
ago.

It seems to work fine.  I am currently enjoyed a working Wacom tablet
again.

With much relief, thank you.

Dave M G
