For anyone stumbling on this bug while trying to get their wacom to
work, here's what I had to do on edgy (it's possible that not all the
steps are required):

1. Install wacom-tools and xinput
2. Edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and comment out those ForceDevice lines that say 
"Tablet PC ONLY".
3. Reconcile the difference between udev creating /dev/input/wacom and 
xorg.conf using /dev/wacom: you can either change xorg.conf, change 
/etc/udev/rules.d/65-wacom.rules, or symlink /dev/input/wacom to /dev/wacom 
(that's what I did for testing, but it won't survive a reboot, so I'll have to 
pick a device name and make udev and X consistent).

A useful tool for testing: /usr/X11R6/bin/xinput list (part of the
xinput package). That's a lot faster than going through GIMP's input
device preference panel every time.
