Public bug reported:
This is related to Ubuntu Feisty.
The problem is that the mouse moves the cursor even when it's a
centimeter from the pad, making it barely usable.
I installed the package wacom-kernel-source, compiled wacom.ko and
installed it, and the problem went away. So I think there is a mismatch
between wacom module and xorg driver versions. In every distribution I
used there is a mismatch between kernel and xorg drivers, always forcing
me to compile from sources.
So I recommend removing the wacom module from the kernel package, and
providing an aditional package that installs the kernel module compiled
from the same sources as the xorg driver (that currently exits). This
would solve a lot of wacom problems out there, not only this.
