Bollebug, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-input-synaptics REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding.

On Ubuntu precise 12.04 this posed no problem. On Quantal 12.10 this exexutes fine ,seemingly without a problem. But when I go to mypaint and try to do some work in it (like panning or changing some modes) I get a black screen and get reverted to login screen. My device is the asus EP 121. It uses a wacom penabled input tool. The "touchpad" that I disable is the screen, only for finger input. I was advised to enclose the x server log.
