  makes intuos5 less useful

  Test case:

  open gimp, draw something while gently touching the buttons, observe
  lines being drawn from the pointer location to top-left-corner of the
  screen

  Regression potential:

  minimal, the patch just drops some packets that shouldn't be there in

  Hi guys!

  Environment:
  ------------------
  Ubuntu 64, Kernel 3.2.0-29-generic #46-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 27 17:03:23 UTC 
2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
  Wacom Intuos 5 without touch (M)
  Nvidia graphics card, propriatary drivers

  $ apt-cache policy wacom-dkms
  wacom-dkms:
    Installiert: 0.13.0-0ubuntu1~ppa1
    Kandidat:    0.13.0-0ubuntu1~ppa1

  My issue
  -----------
  Installed the wacom-dkms (http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Wacom_USB-Tabletts from 
this ppa ppa:lekensteyn/wacom-tablet) package because Ubuntu 12.04 does not 
deliver Intuos 5 support out of the box. With this package the intuos drawing 
area works perfect, but When I touch one of the tablet buttons on the left side 
with my finger (I don't need to press them) the cursor jumps up in the top left 
corner, making this tablet unusable for me!

  The pen has to be above the tablet too, to recognize the jump (using
  gnome3, the exposee feature is triggered then what is even more
  annoying)
