I hate when this happens. I've got it working now. My tablet, stylus and wacom mouse as well as my ps2 mouse. I don't dare attempt to move both mice at the same time. :)
Both the stylus and wacom mouse work with GIMP and X. I could actually use the stylus as my mouse in X, although that doesn't seem practical. Problem is, I don't know what I did that I didn't do before. This last attempt, I started by adding the debugging option to xfree for the wacom devices. I restarted my xserver and then started checking out the xfree log. I noted that it was getting huge, so I logged out of X and killed the x server. From the console, I re-edited my config file commenting out the debug statments. I restarted X and when I got it back up, I just happened to move the stylus and noticed my cursor moved. Now the only difference I know of is this. In previous attempts, I restarted the xserver from the kdm login dialog box, where as this last time, I did an explicit 'killall kdm' from the console. That's the only thing I can figure made the difference. I would expect X to reread the config file when you restart it though. Thanks to all for the assistance.
