Public bug reported:

QuadPen Tablet - worked fine using wacom drivers on Ubuntu 8.04. After
upgrade to 8.10 it stopped working. I have uncommented lines in
xorg.conf which show how it was configured before:

# commented out by update-manager, HAL is now used
#Section "InputDevice"
#       Driver          "wacom"
#       Identifier      "stylus"

#       Option          "Mode"  "Absolute"

        #Option "Model"         "Flair" 
#EndSection

#       Option          "Type"  "cursor"
#       Option          "ForceDevice"   "ISDV4"# Tablet PC ONLY
#       Option          "USB"   "on"
#       Option          "Mode"  "Absolute"
#       Option          "Threshold"     "1"
#       #Option "Model"         "Flair" 
#EndSection

#       Option          "Type"  "eraser"
#       Option          "!ForceDevice"  "ISDV4"# Tablet PC ONLY

#       Option          "Mode"  "Absolute"
#       Option          "Threshold"     "1"
#       #Option "Model"         "Flair" 
#EndSection

(...)

# commented out by update-manager, HAL is now used
#       Inputdevice     "stylus"        "SendCoreEvents"
# commented out by update-manager, HAL is now used
#       Inputdevice     "cursor"        "SendCoreEvents"

Uncommenting them causes XServer to crash (Ubuntu will stop on "Checking
batteries [OK]" and when I log in using CTRL+F1 startx will get me "no
screen" error). The tablet works best with above settings (Threshold 1
is very importart).
