Hmm... I'd guess that you're having some problem with the jitter-suppression 
(the cursor jumps around 1 pix on the screen even though you hold the pen/... 
absolutely still). I know that the jitter-suppression is broken in 0.7.4-3 
(don't know about earlier versions though), but there is a patch you can 
download and apply to get it 'more stable':
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1529268&group_id=69596&atid=525126

The only part this patch affects is the X-driver (wacom_drv.(s)o).

Actually, there are some efforts made in that direction.. 

ExpressKeys (by Voluspa): http://freshmeat.net/projects/wacomexpresskeys
wacom-config (by Jason A): Uhm... No url to that one, sorry.. Check the 
archives..

Check out the archives (May-Aug this year) for more posts about these in this
