If the tablet in photoshop uses the 'eraser' as the drawing tool and the
drawing tool as the 'eraser'. The fix is as documented in the crossover faq.
(as copied below - replace XFree86 with xorg as relevant)
7.1.4.1.3. Why are my tablet's stylus and eraser are messed up?
This is a problem with your XF86Config file. Photoshop expects that a Wacom
tablet's eraser is cursor ID 2 or cursor ID 5. You need to define those
cursors in the correct order in your XFree86 configuration file.
The
ServerLayout?<http://www.wetafx.co.nz/tech/private/twiki/bin/edit/Tech/ServerLayout?topicparent=Tech.CrossoverPhotoshop>section
in your /etc/X11/XF86Config file should look like the following:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Anaconda Configured"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "UsbMouse" "SendCoreEvents"
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
InputDevice "eraser" "SendCoreEvents"
InputDevice "stylus" "SendCoreEvents"
InputDevice "cursor" "SendCoreEvents"
EndSection
The cursor IDs are defined starting from 0 from the bottom of the list up.
With this layout cursor will be ID 0, stylus will be ID 1 and eraser will be
ID 2. You need to restart X after changing this file.
That fix has always worked for me at my work where we have several users of
Photoshop 7 under Wine. Not sure if it covers the problem with all tools
being erasers but it sounds like a related issue. (Perhaps the config file
has both the eraser and stylus sitting at id 2 or 5.)

In my one experience using Photoshop (admittedly Photoshop 7, where you
appear
to have 8) in WINE, it just had the ends of the pen backward. The
'stylus'
end (that is to linuxwacom) was the eraser, and the eraser was the pen.
Quite inconvenient really, and I couldn't find a way around it.
